(5)

Exceptional Little Leaders Academy (ELLA) bases its philosophy on each child's total development. We provide an enriching atmosphere which enables the child to develop socially, emotionally, physically and cognitively. We offer a learning environment which provides developmentally appropriate practices designed to stimulate these areas of growth. The children are involved in first hand experiences and opportunities for self exploration and discovery. They are encouraged to explore the world around them through free play and directed activities. Learning through play is the heart of our curriculum. Daily lesson plans are introduced through structured themes with the children's interests in mind. Through play children learn about themselves, others and the world around them.

Mission: Here at Exceptional Little Leaders Academy (ELLA), we believe in the development of the whole child, as a top priority; whereby establishing appropriate experiences designed to stimulate each individual area of growth. We are an extension of the family and the community in which we serve; establishing a partnership where your ideas and opinions are welcome. Consistently displaying genuine love, healthy nurturing and providing individual care for children is our motto and of the utmost importance. We encourage parents to visit and participate in activities with your child here at the center. At Exceptional Little Leaders Academy we have an open door policy, where you are welcome to come visit, eat lunch, and go on field trips with your child's class.
