Our Philosophy

The Good Shepherd Learning Center is based on the assumption that each child is unique and lovable, a precious gift from God. Our educational program is designed to meet the following developmental needs of the young child:

1. Spiritual
2. Intellectual
3. Emotional
4. Social
5. Physical
6. Creative

We believe these developmental needs can be met through a structured play environment. Play is an essential medium for learning. Play is a way for the young child to internalize the center's curriculum. Through play, children learn to understand their world, deal with new experiences, and gain a greater sense of their own thoughts and feelings.
