We accept two forms of payments through Playground: ACH transactions (bank draft), and automated Credit Card/Debit Card transactions. All families must have either an ACH or Credit/Debit card on file with the CLC before a child can attend. Credit/Debit card transactions will include a 3% processing fee for each transaction.

We teach according to the GELDS - Georgia Early Learning Development Standards. This is based on Early Learning standards for children birth - 5 years old. These standards allow us to focus on social-emotional learning, learning through play, focus' in subject areas, physical development and early reading readiness. We also use a Christian Education curriculum to ensure we incorporate biblical principles in our teaching.

We believe in positive reinforcement. We strive to keep children safe while learning what to do and how to interact with fellow students. We tell them what do to do instead of what not to do. We believe that small shift changes a "no" environment to a healthy, growing environment.
