About

We have been offering quality care since 1967. Finding the right preschool for your child is one of the most important foundations for their educational career. Not only will they lay their first academic cornerstones, but valuable social and motor skills. These skills are first developed in preparation for success in kindergarten and onto their college years. As your child takes these first steps in schooling, it is important to find a preschool that will not only nurture them academically, but spiritually as well.

At Northside Academy for Early Learning, we believe that by partnering with you, the parents, we can give each and every one of our students a solid foundation to excel throughout their schooling and their lives. At the Academy for Early Learning, our preschool begins at 6 weeks of age and continues until the Kindergarten transition time; covering the most important years of learning in  your child’s life.

We realize the great responsibility that is ours in providing quality care, academic instruction, and instilling Christian character by both teaching it and living it. We strive to help every student achieve their full potential, physically, socially, academically and spiritually. Proverbs 22:6 says, “Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it” (King James Version). We believe in partnering with parents so your child is receiving Biblical training at school and in the home.
