Our Mission Statement

Tule Elk Park CDC provides a high quality early childhood education that values the importance of relationships, diversity, literacy, creativity, high individual expectations, and the natural world so all children will realize their full potential.

“Nature provides time for mistakes to be corrected (by both children and adults), for prejudices to be overcome, and for children to catch their breath and restore their images of themselves, peers, parents, teachers, and the world.”

— Loris Malaguzzi, founder of Reggio Emilia schools.

Our Vision Statement

All children will find their brilliance.

“Creativity requires that the school of knowing finds connections with the school of expressing, opening the doors to the hundred languages of children.”

— Loris Malaguzzi
