Our L.E.A.P.® (Learning Experience Academic Program) Curriculum uses fun, hands-on activities throughout early education to help children develop intellectually, socially and cognitively. Or as we say, to learn, play and grow.
Children love learning from characters—and studies show that it’s highly effective especially in preschool and early education. TLE® has a cast of unique, beloved characters, each one teaching children a new value or activity.

Absolutely love this center! The teachers my daughter has had in the past and her current teachers are amazing! They have really helped to bring my daughter out of her shell through creative play and social interactions. She has truly advanced and excelled since being in this school.

My son Sawyer absolutely loves TLE. Previous daycares/Pre-K he was in he would beg me not to go each morning but I have not heard that once since Ms. Thomas has been his teacher. He absolutely loves it there and he's doing so well.
