Elementary Redesign/School Choice

The MSD of Lawrence Township, a long time innovative leader in early childhood education, opened four regionally located Early Learning Centers in August of 2006.  Every aspect of the district's four Early Learning Centers - from the buildings themselves to the programs and curriculum - has been purposefully designed by the highly qualified staff according to "best practice" research in early learning.  The research is clear: the early years are the most critical in determining a child's future academic and life success.  The MSD of Lawrence Township continues to make early learning a priority and a commitment in accomplishing its mission of "empowering all students to contribute and succeed as self-directed, life-long learners."

The four Early Learning Centers are located on the campuses of Amy Beverland, Brook Park, Mary Castle, and Winding Ridge.  Providing a three-year continuum of high-quality and integrated educational experiences, all four Centers offer:
 

• Preschool of the Arts (designed for children ages 3-5 and focused on individual expression and exploration in art, music, movement, and literacy)
• Kindergarten
• Childcare before and after school (6:30 a.m. - 6:00 p.m.)
