EARLY EDUCATION

At APCC we provide comprehensive, high-quality pre-k & childcare for children 2-5 years of age. Our childcare programs foster social-emotional, cognitive and physical development through a play-based curriculum. Each child’s sense of individual worth and belonging is placed at the forefront of our program. We take pride in offering culturally, and linguistically informed teaching strategies that meet the diverse needs of the families and community we serve.
