About Us
The Epps Learning Center
Enrollment in the Epps Learning Center afterschool program is open to children ages 4 to 12. Admission shall be granted without regard to an applicant’s race, religion, national origin, gender or disability. We are committed to developing a safe, positive and encouraging environment that will give our students the confidence to achieve at their maximum potential. By utilizing technology, customizing our teaching strategies to match each child’s learning style and keeping the teacher to student ratio low, we have been able to effect significant positive outcomes for children, encompassing enhancements in academic performance, classroom behavior, and the cultivation of self-discipline.
Our team consists of dedicated and certified professionals wholeheartedly devoted to both the academic and emotional growth and development of your child. Each team member has been selected and screened based on their educational background, training and/or experience. All have completed the fingerprint and/or background investigation required by the state of Georgia. We are licensed to operate from Bright from the Start, Georgia Department of Early Care and Learning. We take pride in the contribution we make in the effort to develop this generation to become productive citizens, future leaders of our communities, institutions and America.
