The mission of Starbright Early Learning Center is to offer affordable, high quality care to young children and their families.
Excellent teachers and a rich learning environment are the keys to every child's positive experience.
By recognizing and reinforcing each child's unique strengths and abilities, teachers work to raise children's self-esteem and thereby contribute to their growth in less developed areas.
Starbright promotes creativity, self-discipline, self-worth, and a positive attitude in experiencing life.
What some perceive as mistakes or failures, we perceive as positive steps forward in the learning process.
Above all, emphasis is placed on promoting emotional security and happiness for each child.
