Our Facility: Founded in 1969, Wee Lad and Lassie Early Learning
Center is a small private facility located on a beautiful wooded acre
in Arnold, Maryland.
Our Program: In 1987, Wee Lad and Lassie joined the very few
private preschool and kindergarten programs to receive the
Maryland State Department of Education non-public school approval.
In addition, in 2005, we earned MSDE Early Childhood
Accreditation. This means our management, staff and curricula
meet the highest standards in Maryland. Currently we are one of
only two MSDE Accredited programs in Arnold. Our curricula are
broad based, covering Language Arts, Mathematics, Social Studies,
and Science. Also included are music and technology instruction, fine
art, physical education, and Spanish. We promote the development
of the whole child by fostering physical, social, emotional and
cognitive growth. We believe that a developmentally appropriate
approach to learning and individual attention are the keys to a high
quality early childhood education.
Our Staff: Our teachers and staff members are enthusiastic
about children and teaching! The interaction between children and
adults is positive, warm, and nurturing with lots of attention to each
child's needs. All teachers have a Bachelors Degree and several
have completed Graduate Programs. We find that our teachers are
happy here, with many of our staff remaining for a number of years
to build a learning community.
Please feel free to call with questions you may have or to schedule a
visit. We encourage parents and students to visit our facility to
observe classes in session and meet our staff; that is the best way
to evaluate a program!
Our sister school, A Child's Garden, offers preschool classes and
extended care for your younger children (18 months to 3 years old).
