Well-Rounded Academics With A Trusted Curriculum

The proven, play-based HighScope© curriculum builds your little learner’s literacy and math skills. They explore science, social studies, critical thinking, and problem-solving at their own pace through real-world applications that inspire their natural curiosity.

Small Groups For More Personalized Learning

Dedicated, qualified teachers lead class groups that are smaller than required by the state, so they can ensure each individual learns at their own pace and gets the support they need to succeed now and in the future.

The Social-Emotional Skills Your Kindergartener Needs

With a combination of HighScope© Conflict Resolution and the trusted, gentle Conscious Discipline® philosophy, your child learns to be a kind and empathetic peer, a well-mannered classroom citizen, and a confident communicator who can express and regulate their emotions.

Engaging Enrichments Give Their Learning An Extra Boost

Your child loves to express themselves and explore their passions through music, dance, and yoga, included in their learning every week. For those who want to try new skills, the Gymnastics Bus and Soccer Shots sessions are available too.

Practical & Self-Care Skills Boost Their Independence

Your child practices tidying up, learns to follow daily routines, prepares themselves for going outside, and works on school skills like listening and minding their belongings. They also write, cut, trace, color, and glue to improve their fine motor control.

They Can’t Wait For Outdoor Playtime

With incredible play yards, beautiful gardens, and a basketball court, amazing outdoor adventures take flight. As they play in the fresh air each day, your child enjoys a connection with nature and views of thrilling river rescue drills.

You Won’t Find Another Kindergarten As Unique

A historic riverfront landmark has huge windows for natural lighting, child-friendly fixtures, furnishings, materials, and a large” motor skills play and gathering area that brings everyone together.

A Healthy Food Program That Nourishes Your “Whole Child”

Your child’s day includes a healthy, delicious, allergy-conscious breakfast, lunch, and snacks that feed the mind, body, and spirit. A dedicated onsite kitchen staff lovingly prepares every meal, and the program is included at no additional cost to you.

Field Trips & Fun Visitors For Fresh Experiences

Your child loves stepping out for trips to Howard Park, the zoo, splash pad, nature preserve, and local farms. Sometimes the visitors come to them: children’s authors, sports mascots, and local first responders brighten your child’s day with memorable appearances.

Stay In The Loop With Your Convenient App

Never miss a moment of your child’s day with the Smartcare app. Get pictures, videos, activity reports, and essential classroom memos direct from your child’s teacher to your phone. With regular updates, you’re always up to date with their progress.

Parent Support & Involvement Makes You Part Of The Family

Enjoy access to onsite speech and behavioral therapies, an open-door policy, daily communication, monthly newsletters, and regular parent-teacher conferences. Your family is part of ours, and you feel like a valued partner in your child’s education.

East Bank has been a part of our lives for over 10 years, it truly is a magical place. When I drop my daughter off it feels like she is with family all day. The HighScope curriculum makes learning fun for her while also setting her up to excel in elementary school and beyond. We are grateful that a place like this exists. Knowing your child is happy and thriving all day is a big relief as a parent.

We looked at so many childcare centers, and East Bank was the only one that made us feel at home as soon as we walked through the door. The teachers and staff know every child’s name - even the ones they haven’t taught yet! As an educator, I love the play-based curriculum, and I’m so grateful that my son is excited to go to school every day. He is known and loved at East Bank, and he is learning so much each day!

We sent our first child (of four) to East Bank in 2017. Selecting child care is one of the hardest things to do in life. From day one, we have always felt safe and have had the utmost confidence in the loving and nurturing environment that our children receive here. And when it has come time for them to move on, we have found that each one has been exceptionally prepared by the High Scope Curriculum. We'd never recommend anywhere else.

We are thankful to EBLC for all that they do for our son. Teachers’ individualized attention, interactions, patience, planned activities and updates provided to us parents demonstrate their tireless efforts in ensuring the safety and happiness of our son, and our peace of mind. We also appreciate EBLC leaders’ communication to us of their future plans for any process improvements and plans of action. All this to say, we can see EBLC truly cares and are grateful for their passion and dedication everyday.
