The Early Learning Center


ELC teachers are trained in Early Childhood Education and the staff-child ratio surpasses the state's standards. This allows for one-to-one or small group interaction and building of positive relationships essential for young children.


The learning environment is prepared so that children can learn through active exploration and interaction with adults, other children and materials. Daily programs emphasize the social, physical, affective, cognitive, creative and language development of the children.

The center accepts children between the ages of 6 weeks through 5 years old, regardless of race or religion. Applications are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis with priority given to children of Terra students, whenever possible. The ELC also serves children with special needs. 

ELC tuition rates are a flat rate per child per day.  Interested parents may call the ELC Office at 419.559.2250 or toll free 866.AT.TERRA, ext. 2250 for an application and more information.
