St. Francis Early Learning Academy provides developmentally appropriate activities where children can discover for themselves their ever-changing world. Group activities are planned so that children learn the give and take of everyday living, sharing, taking turns and respecting the rights of others. They learn to work and play happily, and to grow and develop emotionally, physically, socially, intellectually and spiritually at their own pace.
