Our Programs

As early childhood educators, our goal is to provide a stimulating and motivational atmosphere for our children. We realize that the most receptive time for a child's learning is birth to age five. Our infant/toddler programs allow children a variety of developmentally appropriate practice opportunities to explore their environment and develop the necessary skills to successfully navigate the world around them 

Our preschool program is designed to focus on our children's social/emotional development to ensure that they are "ready learners" to begin their early literacy journey. 

We assess each child individually, allowing teachers to personalize their developmental goals. Students will be introduced to new coping skills and techniques that will help them to self-regulate. 

All LCA curricula meet the Nebraska State Standards for education, as well as nurturing their spiritual growth in a language and literacy enriched atmosphere.

 Our Montessori classroom is thoughtfully designed to nurture independence, curiosity, and a love of learning through hands-on exploration and child-led activities. In this environment, children are encouraged to make choices, solve problems, and take ownership of their learning—promoting self-motivation and confidence from an early age. The classroom supports the development of practical life skills and a strong sense of responsibility, while fostering respect for others and the world around them. With a focus on concentration, cooperation, and purposeful work, children build the foundation for academic readiness as well as emotional and social growth. The result is a calm, structured setting where each child can thrive at their own pace—developing focus, independence, and a lifelong enthusiasm for learning.

Our school-age program gives your elementary school-age child a supportive community in which to learn and thrive, with a structured balance of care before and after school and during school breaks. LCA teachers create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment aligned with our developmentally appropriate curriculum and a wide variety of engaging activities, learning techniques, and enrichment programs. At LCA, our goal is to give your child a healthier, prosperous, and well-rounded beginning to life.

This program is designed to help build your child's self-worth, character, confidence, values, and intellectual growth. LCA recognizes the importance of both human and spiritual nature. We incorporate God as our perfect example of how to live and treat others. Spiritual teachings provide children with a sense of purpose and presence in the world. 

Your child's Summer should always include a healthy balance of education and fun, at LCA  we aim to do just that!

LCA creates a fun atmosphere that also reinforces what your child has learned throughout the school year to make every child successful and happy. Your child will have an extraordinary summer vacation with a healthier, prosperous, and well-rounded foundation for their future. 

Through themed activities and events that support our curriculum, your child will enjoy interacting on field trips, seeing special visitors, and playing developmentally-appropriate games while balancing the needs and interests of each individual child.
