A DIFFERENT APPROACH
Each location of the St. Luke’s Children’s Center provides a creative learning experience for children in a Christian environment. We seek to provide an atmosphere in which children can grow spiritually, socially, mentally, physically and emotionally to his/her fullest potential and support parents as they provide the same atmosphere at home.
CURRICULUM
As a Childcare Center, St. Luke's is dedicated to much more than just creating a space for your child to stay while you are at work. The innovative teaching strategies we have developed are founded on the principles of inquiry-based learning in conjunction with our mission and values. Weekly lesson plans promote skill development, sensory-motor, cognitive-expressive, and social emotional learning. Additional parent involvement activities occur on a regular basis throughout the year to promote whole family relationships between parents and teachers. Our teacher led curriculum is designed to help your child meet developmental milestones while learning and growing in their classrooms.
ACCREDITATION
All St. Luke’s Children’s Centers are NAC (National Accreditation Commission) Accredited facilities. This achievement demonstrates our commitment to providing high-quality childcare by using research and evidence-based practices within our classrooms and training our staff to utilize these best practices at all our facilities. In addition to this, St. Luke’s has gone the extra mile of achieving a 5 Star rating with the Oklahoma Quality Rating and Improvement System for all our locations. This designation ensures the high standards of quality childcare are being met beyond the minimum licensing requirements through the state.
E-SCHOOL
St. Luke’s Children’s Center Downtown is excited to be offering E-School for grades 1-3 through the E-School Virtual Charter Academy. E-School is a fully accredited online curriculum that provides families a more flexible and involved approach to their children’s education. Children enrolled in our E-School program will receive individualized attention with our certified teacher on-site as well as customized lesson plans with hands-on activities to enhance their knowledge and provide a high-quality educational experience.
PARENT HANDBOOK
Under the guidance of our Children’s Center Directors, the Executive Director, and St. Luke’s Methodist Church, the policies and regulations that have been developed for all weekday programs are designed to keep a harmonious and transparent relationship between families and staff.
