Marylhurst Early Childhood Center
School Notes Overview:
Marylhurst Early Childhood Center believes that children are naturally curious, intrinsically imaginative, and thrive when learning is active and meaningful. Teachers are inspired by children to create active enriching environments that foster kindness, intellectual growth, and the joy of discovery. MECC supports the development of a community that celebrates the unique contributions of our families, our school, and each individual child. At Marylhurst we strive to create a collaborative learning community that celebrates individual differences and encourages children to take pleasure in their own and others’ intellectual, emotional, social, and physical growth; nurture the development of compassion, understanding, a sense of responsibility toward others in the community, and strength of character, empowering children to express their beliefs and act upon their convictions; and support lifelong learners who are instilled with a love of learning and an understanding that their education will always be unfinished....
