Our Vision

Our mission is to establish a Public-Private partnership to provide an inclusive quality education center for our children prior to entering kindergarten. It is the goal of LCPS and NN YMCA to serve as many students in Lancaster County through a collaborative 3 & 4 year old program. Working together, we will utilize shared resources to provide quality early intervention and instruction. Our center will include a diverse group of children learning through a holistic approach.
