Salem Lutheran Early Childhood Center

Salem Lutheran ECC is a Christian early childhood center offering preschool educational programs. Class offerings are available up to five mornings a week, with optional extended care available before and after school. Each program gives children a chance to interact with others while learning and having fun. We provide a safe, educational, and nurturing environment for the children.

Preschool for 3 and 4 year olds: Choose from two, three, four, or five day-a-week class offerings. Your child starts the educational journey at Salem learning personal responsibility, decision-making, and cooperation using a Christian-based approach. The academic curriculum includes fundamentals of literacy, art, mathematics, physical education, music, and religion. The school day begins at 9:00 am and ends at noon.

Extended Care Enrichment: Extended care enrichment includes art, cooking, science, music, and games, as well as recreation and rest. Extended care is available before school from 7:30 am and after school as late as 5:30 pm.

Mom s Morning Out: Beginning at age 18 months, this program is offered one morning per week. Your child is introduced to a school environment with music and movement, story time, Jesus time, and socialization with other children.

At Salem Lutheran Early Childhood Center, our vision is to provide quality Christian education with a unique combination of academic rigor and nurturing. Children are taught in a loving environment that emphasizes respect, sharing, getting along with others, and learning while having fun.
