Grace Assembly Learning Center
Our Mission Statement
WE EXIST TO HELP OUR STUDENTS LEARN TO KNOW GOD, TO LEAD THEIR FAMILIES TO FIND FREEDOM IN HIM, TO HELP OUR TEACHERS DISCOVER THEIR PURPOSE AND TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE SPRING CITY COMMUNITY
GALC was founded by Mrs. Nina Mason in 1978 and is licensed by Pennsylvania’s Department of Human Services. Our curriculum is faith-based and we include daily prayers, Bible stories, and Christian music in all classrooms and weekly chapel with Pastor Kelly from Grace Assembly of God. Each month of the school year, we focus on building character as we learn about the fruits of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness and self-control. We also teach weekly themes such as friendship, the Week of the Young Child, Dr. Suess and the five senses. As a proud Keystone STAR 2 center, our curriculum is aligned with the Pennsylvania Early Learning Standards.
In addition to our three age-specific and fully fenced playgrounds, we have two indoor gross-motor spaces, our Fellowship Hall and our Family Life Center (FLC). Each Wednesday, we use our FLC/gym for Lil' Sports, a fitness program for two and over, as well as chapel on Thursdays for all ages. We offer special family programs such as our Christmas Concert, Grandparent's Day celebration and Pre-K graduation in our FLC as we partner with families, who are their child's first educators!
Safety of our students is our top priority. We have cameras monitoring all areas of the center including classrooms, common areas, playgrounds and our parking lot. Parents are given key fobs to have access to the building and visitors are monitored via cameras that are located by our doorbells. All staff are certified in pediatric CPR and first aid and they take at least twelve training hours per year to further their education. We are open 7:00AM to 5:00PM, Monday through Friday. See the annual calendar for scheduled CLOSED days. Grace Assembly Learning Center (GALC) is a ministry of Grace Assembly of God.
