  • deep learning
  • individuality
  • flexible design
  • connection

ALA is open to students in Pre-K to 3rd Grade. If there are fewer applications than seats available, no lottery is conducted and all students are accepted.  If there are more applications than available seats, a lottery is conducted, offers are made for the number of seats available, and the remaining students are waitlisted.  

ALA at Euclid (PK-3) Information Sessions: 
Students and parents are invited to attend an information session after school on select Thursdays from 4:00-5:00 PM. Once you submit this form, your registration for your selected date and time is confirmed.

This program offers young children an opportunity to interact with their peers so that they can begin to learn about sharing and caring for others. They learn about the world around them through play.

Our purpose is to provide a Christian environment that is safe and conducive to good health where children work and play together. Our aim is to offer opportunities for the children to grow intellectually, physically, socially, and spiritually. We hope to achieve these goals by encouraging an enthusiasm for learning through:

  • sharing a daily time of devotion through Bible stories and chapel experiences
  • giving each child an awareness of God's love for him/her
  • "hands on" exploring
  • activities which develop large and small muscle coordination and motor skill
  • participating in group experiences, sharing and playing together

Our Parents Day Out program is for infants; six (6) weeks through two (2) years of age.

We offer 2, 3, and 5-day classes. You may choose a Half Day; which is 8:45 am - noon, or a Full Day which is 8:45 am - 2:45 pm. Early Care begins at 7:30 am and Extended Care until 5:00 pm.

The Preschool program offers children readiness opportunities to prepare them for kindergarten. We focus on language development, listening-skills, large and small motor development as well as number, color and alphabet recognition. The rooms offer several different learning centers and throughout the year they are exposed to numerous units of study which challenge their creative and academic development. In addition to classroom activities, the children go to Music class and Motor Movement class. We have a unique outdoor playground that offers a variety of play equipment.

The children begin each day in chapel. We sing songs, hear stories about Jesus and learn the importance of prayer in our lives. Our intention is to welcome young children to God's family during this short worship service.

Our program is a nurturing introduction to "school" for young children. We hope that you will give us the opportunity to serve your family in taking care of your child.

Ages: 3 - 5 years.
