Vision Statement
The vision of Imagine That… Creative Children’s Center llc., is to provide quality education programs that engage young children and their families in activities that inspire innovative thinking, encourage healthy social and emotional development, and promote positive community experiences.

This active learning process, supported by multiple opportunities and levels of developmentally appropriate curriculum, will help provide access to a wide range of authentic learning possibilities for all children. By further building an active community based support system for families through staff development, and parent education opportunities, it is our intention to set a high quality standard for the education of all children.
