About the Provider

Description: The vision of the Pendergast School District includes the ability to attract and retain highly- qualified teachers and staff. In an effort to do just that, the Early Learning Center (ELC) was created. After almost three years on the campus of Villa de Paz, the ELC moved into its new facility in January of 2005. Located on the east side of the Pendergast Learning Center, the classrooms of the ELC surround a green, plush carpet of grass and an age-appropriate playground.
