Fun and Learning Starts Here

We believe that each child is unique and has their own personality and learning style. We are sensitive to each child’s social, emotional, intellectual, cultural and physical needs. We provide a physical environment that is accessible for all children with or without special needs. Our curriculum supports developmentally appropriate practice that aligns with the Georgia Early Learning and Developmental Standards (GELDS). The components that make up the GELDS are physical health and motor development, social and emotional development, literacy, language and development, cognitive development, mathematics, social studies and creative arts. Our teaching practices develop the leaders of our future through daily practices that teach and model essential core educational and moral values for everyday life, sustainability, and accountability while embracing holistic teaching and learning strategies that promote the development of the whole child (spirit, soul, and body). Students are equipped with stewardship knowledge and tools that cultivate character development, financial literacy, vocational preparation, healthy dietary and physical fitness.


Our qualified teachers support children’s learning through a mixture of teacher directed activities as well as facilitating child-initiated experiences. The classrooms are designed to allow for large group play, small group interactions and individual experiences that engage children in open ended activities, free choice options and purposeful play. We promote not only learning but the love of learning. We provide a nurturing environment that encourages all our students’ imaginations to soar. Most importantly, we believe that children thrive and learn best in a loving environment where they can receive support and attention. The trust of a parent is an honor given to us. We in turn, promise to provide only the best for you and your child. Education Station is a place where every child can succeed and reach their full potential.

This program promotes your child’s independence, imagination and creativity. Three-year-olds are becoming interested in activities with structure. It is our hope that we can develop in each child a positive self-image and a love of learning and school. In the Early Learning class, we provide many activities to do just that. The curriculum is planned intentionally starting with a goal or focus and working backwards to create a developmentally appropriate environment that aligns with the Georgia Early Learning and Developmental Standards. The mixture of teacher directed activities, facilitated child-initiated experiences and easily accessible centers are designed to allow for large group play, small group interactions and individual experiences.

In our Pre-K program, we recognize the importance of preparing the children as well as the parent for kindergarten. Beginning kindergarten is a huge milestone for your child. Not only do we focus on the academics but also on the social, emotional and communication skills. We want your child to feel confident and independent by giving them the skills and information that they will need in order to ensure that their first year of school is a success.
