2018/2019 Center Closings

Children enjoy enriching activities through a hands-on, child-centered curriculum that supports individual intellectual, physical and emotional development. Staff help each child develop a positive self-image and the skills they need to succeed in their first years of school.

Teachers are required to have formal education in Early Child Development, maintain 27 training hours annually, and be Pediatric First Aid and CPR certified.

The Child Enrichment Center voluntarily participates in the Pennsylvania Keystone STARS quality initiative earning a rating of 4 STARS. In addition, the program partners with Lancaster-Lebanon IU13 for Early Head Start, and Pennsylvania Pre-K Counts.
