Our Mission
In partnership with Darden聽College of Education, the Mission of 91制片厂 Children's Learning and Research Center is to offer the highest quality early education for the children of 91制片厂 faculty, staff, students and the metropolitan Hampton Roads community. Collaboratively with the Darden College of Education, we are a facility for teacher training and a site for academic research.
Message from the Director
Welcome to 91制片厂's Children's Learning and Research Center! We proudly offer full-day and half-day programs that serve children and families of both the 91制片厂 and the South Hampton Roads community.
The Darden College of Education & Professional Studies is home to the Children's Learning and Research Center, a program that focuses on the early care and education of 91制片厂's youngest students. In addition to providing the highest-quality care, education and support for our families, these programs serve as a training facility for our undergraduate and graduate level students in early childhood education (Pre K-3) and elementary education (Pre K-6).
Staffed by bachelor's and master's degree-level teachers and graduate-level practicum students, our children receive a great deal of individual attention that promotes optimal learning and development. Our developmentally appropriate curricula focus on social and emotional development, cognitive, physical and language/literacy development. We focus on preparing children for today and tomorrow--creating children who are autonomous and enthusiastic life-long learners.
We welcome the opportunity to share these wonderful programs with you. We invite you to explore our programs and see what 91制片厂 Children's Learning and Research Center can do for you!
