A Community Built on Excellence
Kids Learning Center is a nationally accredited early childhood center, elementary and middle school program. Our schools are located in the South Dade area on Caribbean Boulevard, Eureka Drive and Quail Roost Drive.
Since 1989 our schools have provided high quality care and education to children from infancy through eighth grade. Our dedicated and highly trained teachers focus on more than just reading, writing and arithmetic by also creating active learning experiences around character building, physical activity and social and emotional development.
Our unique character education and green team program leads your child on a journey to answer the question "What does it mean to be a person of character?" and "What can I do to make an impact in our world?" Our environment, methods of teaching, and level of quality in instructors all add up to a well-rounded experience to nurture a well-rounded child. In addition, instilling our biblical teachings will allow our students to live a godly life that will lead them to become change ambassadors in the world.
Our Philosophy
Kids Learning Center is committed to the education of young children and the achievement of their optimal developmental level. Our program views itself as a support system for the child and his/her family. To this end, staff is carefully selected, and programs are individually planned to meet the unique needs of each child.
The program provides a multitude of play opportunities through which each child is guided towards his/her greatest potential. We believe strongly that the child learns best through direct experiences with his/her world and through interaction with other children and adults.
KLC has adopted the philosophy of environmental awareness to promote global responsibility. We will encourage our students to think outside of the box, to protect their planet and to take care of those less fortunate.
Kids Learning Center has a strong commitment to accessibility and diversity. Its open-door policy embraces all who desire to provide a better quality of care, preparedness, and education for their children.
Statement of Faith
- We believe the books of the Old and New Testaments of the Bible to be the only inspired, infallible and authoritative Word of God.
- We believe in one God, infinitely perfect and eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
- We believe that through divine creation, in the space of six days, all life and matter came into being.
- We believe that by one man, Adam, sin entered the world: that all mankind is therefore lost; and that for salvation of the lost, regeneration by the Holy Spirit through faith in our Lord Jesus Christ is absolutely necessary.
- We believe in the deity, virgin birth and miracles of our Lord Jesus Christ, that He died upon the cross as a substitutionary sacrifice for sin: that He arose from the dead and ascended into Heaven to the right hand of the Father, from whence He will return in power and glory.
- We believe in justification by faith alone, realizing it is impossible for man, through works, to please God or save himself.
- We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; the saved into everlasting life and the lost unto eternal punishment and damnation.
- We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling, the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.
- We believe in the spiritual unity of all believers within the body of Christ.
- We believe in the sanctity of human life with life beginning at conception. God, Alone, has the power over life and death.
