Empowering Children through Education

Detroit’s Premier Child Care Center for Growth

At Antioch Learning Center, curriculum development and implementation are guided by a holistic approach that prioritizes the well-being and growth of every child.

We believe in nurturing academic proficiency, social-emotional development, physical wellness, and creative expression. Our curriculum provides a balanced blend of structured learning experiences and child-led exploration, ensuring that each child's needs and interests are honored and supported.

A Family-Centered Learning Approach

We strive to foster strong partnerships between home and school, creating a connected support system that extends beyond the classroom walls. Through regular communication, parent workshops, and family engagement events, we empower parents to participate in their child’s learning and development actively. 

By aligning our curriculum with proven methods and best practices in early childhood education, we provide children with a solid foundation for success in school and beyond, equipping them with the skills, confidence, and resilience needed to thrive in today's world.

Curriculum

HighScope Curriculum and Common Core Standards

Antioch Learning Center uses HighScope Curriculum and Common Core standards. Using the HighScope approach, children explore and experiment to build their own knowledge. Educators guide students and provide materials and support for students to meet certain developmental challenges known as key experiences. Following the Common Core standards ensures students are ready to transition to elementary school after building a strong foundation at Antioch Learning Center.
