The Literacy & Learning Center is pleased to announce the opening of its North Carolina certified pre-K program in Highlands. Responding to the growing demand for additional early childhood education in the community, this initiative aims to bridge the gap and provide a nurturing and comprehensive learning environment for children in need of pre-K education.
TL&LC’s pre-K program in Highlands addresses a crucial need in the community. With an increasing number of families seeking pre-K education for their children (approximately 70 children are currently on the wait list for currently existing programs), the planned opening comes as a timely response to ensure that every child has the opportunity to develop foundational skills and thrive academically.

The pre-K program at TL&LC in Highlands will offer a comprehensive curriculum that aligns with the rigorous standards set by the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction. Through a play-based and child-centered approach, young learners will engage in activities that enhance their language and literacy skills, develop mathematical and scientific thinking, nurture social-emotional well-being, and promote physical growth.
The Literacy & Learning Center is committed to ensuring that every child receives individualized attention and support. Highly qualified and dedicated educators will guide students through their learning journeys, fostering a love for learning and creating a strong foundation for future academic achievements.
