The St. Paul Catholic Learning Center is a place:
Where children are valued for their ability to play, for their wonder and curiosity, for their perspectives, and for their potential.
Where families are valued for their traditions; for their commitment to God, home, and community; and for their dreams for their children.
Where staff members are valued for their vision, for their delight in children, and for their skill, knowledge, and heart.
Your child's day includes age-related activities, breakfast, lunch, and a snack.
Come and check us out! Call to arrange a tour of the facility where your child will spend his or her day and meet the team that would be working with your child.
