The goal of Windham Crossing Learning Center is to provide ‘Excellence’ in all areas.  The WCLC philosophy is ‘whole child’ centered and ‘faith-based’.  Our children are supported spiritually, intellectually, socially and emotionally. 

 All teachers at WCLC are New Hampshire State approved.   WCLC teachers are flexible, engaged, reflective, and carry high expectations.  Our environment is dynamic and affirming, supportive and innovative.  WCLC staff maintain ongoing and consistent communication with parents and students alike. We use the ClassDojo app to help with immediate communication between teacher and parent.

Daily prayer is an integral part of life at WCLC. We incorporate weekly bible stories and memory verses on top of our regular academics, as well as praying before mealtimes. We are here to ‘serve’ you and your child by offering our best daily.

WCLC offers a unique, supportive, and goal-setting education in which our students feel safe and secure within a structured and loving faith-based environment.  Excellence in education is our goal.  We attain this goal through ‘authentic modeling’, proactive responses towards behavior management, daily communication, and effective goal setting.  Our students are encouraged to be actively engaged, inquisitive and creative.

Toddler 1 (12 months to 24 months)

Our Toddler 1 classroom is a nurturing and engaging environment where children are supported as they grow and reach important developmental milestones. At this stage, we focus on building confidence through exploration, movement, and meaningful interactions. Children are encouraged to develop their fine and gross motor skills through hands-on activities, active play, and guided practice. Sensory experiences and creative art opportunities allow them to explore the world around them while strengthening curiosity and independence. Language development is woven throughout the day with songs, stories, and intentional word-building, helping children begin to express themselves and connect with others. Our caring teachers provide a warm, responsive environment where each child feels safe, supported, and excited to learn.

Toddler 2 (24 months to 36 months)

In our Toddler 2 program, children begin participating in simple group activities and short periods of teacher-guided instruction. Our focus is on developing the whole child by supporting fine motor skills (such as grasping and manipulating objects), gross motor skills (movement and coordination), social-emotional development (sharing, expressing feelings, and building relationships), and early cognitive skills through hands-on exploration and play. We also partner with families to begin the potty training process, introducing it in a supportive and developmentally appropriate way.

Pre-School (3 years)

In our Preschool program, children begin engaging in more structured academic experiences while continuing to develop socially and emotionally. We focus on early math skills through hands-on activities, guided instruction, letter recognition, number recognition 1-10, basic shapes, early writing practice and purposeful play. At the same time, we support social-emotional development by helping children learn to express themselves, build friendships, follow routines, and develop independence in a supportive and encouraging classroom environment.

We offer Monthly Thematic units including those depicting famous authors, holidays, Bible heroes, citizenship and seasons.

Pre-Kindergarten

The Pre-Kindergarten program provides students a ‘literacy’ rich environment.  In this class we focus on letter sounds, rhyming, writing, sight words and math. Phonemic awareness, Phonics, Vocabulary, Accuracy/Fluency and Comprehension are all necessary components in becoming a ‘Reader’. Other assets that are incorporated are science and sensory experiments, cooking and baking, free expressive art, and activities that promote team building. These skills are introduced and developed according to each child’s specific ability.  We foster independence, cooperation, a sense of personal accomplishment, self-monitoring skills and social awareness. 

Activities and Opportunities

WCLC takes pride in that we are located on a farm with land. There are a handful of local trails where we can take the students on walks.  The local farm is accessible where we can take children to see the animals such as goats, chickens, cows, sheep and pigs.

Annual events include Pumpkinfest and Christmas at the Crossing. Both are located at the church across the street, but open for all towns to visit. Windham Crossing Learning Center hosts the kids’ zone for Pumpkinfest, and all families are invited each year to both events. Pumpkinfest is an event that families are invited to for games, hayrides, live music, facepainting, and vendors. Christmas at the Crossing has a live nativity scene, pictures with St. Nicholas, live music, and vendors.
