Overview

Mission

Greater Expectations Children Learning, Inc. is a nonprofit organization established to provide quality care and educational support for children between the ages of 8 weeks to 12 years. The babies and toddlers will be cared for and emphasis will be placed on their cognitive development. Kindergarteners through 12-year-olds will be provided afterschool educational support in the form of reinforcement and tutoring.

What it reported doing in 2025

Greater Expectations Children's Learning Center provided services to more than 27 families in the Laurel area who were able to attend at no charge because of a grant received from the Department of Human Services. Through our enrollments, young children began developing their cognitive skills, pre schoolers are getting phonetically prepared to read, and our students are getting the social and academic experiences they need to become good students going forward. We also had a number of students 6-12 in the afterschool program where we provided tutoring and enhanced learning based on the school curriculum.
