Erie First Early Education Center

At our accredited preschool, we believe early childhood education is our opportunity to encourage a love of learning that prepares each child for years of success in school. A child who is taught to have that attitude throughout their early learning experience will hopefully carry it with them through their future years of education.

Pre-K at EFCA

At Erie First Early Ed. Center, our Pre-K program is recognized by, and falls under the authority of, the PA Department of Education. We use a thematic approach to our Pre-K program utilizing direct instruction, learning centers, along with large and fine motor self-select play opportunities.
