M.A.R.S.(Math, Art, Reading& Science) EARLY LEARNING ACADEMY
Has been serving children and families in Southeast Seattle communities since 1995 under Toddler Tech Child Care Center. After many successful years of effectively serving children, families, and the community at-large, there was a notable increase of young children not being prepared to enter the traditional education system as kindergarteners.
This dilemma really tugged on the heartstrings of Tracey Delgardo, so she decided to change the name and focus to early learning, serving ages infant to five-year-old. Providing a rigorous age-appropriate curriculum with strong emphases in math, arts, reading, and science programs with a STEM-based focus (M.A.R.S.). M.A.R.S. Early Learning Academy's core belief is that achievement starts from the cradle and is a lifelong process.
