At Calvary Early Learning Center, our mission is to share God’s grace through the education and enrichment of young children. Rooted in the belief that every child is a precious gift from the Lord, we provide a dynamic educational environment that fosters growth in mind, body, and spirit. As part of the Pittsburgh Area Lutheran School System (PALS), we uphold a tradition of excellence in Christian education that emphasizes faith as an integral part of early childhood education.
A Place for Your Child
Welcome to a world of boundless discovery and compassionate care! At Calvary Early Learning Center, we offer more than just a preschool experience—we provide a loving community where children ages 2 through 6 can thrive. With personalized attention and engaging activities tailored to individual readiness, our classrooms are vibrant spaces where every child can flourish.
Growing in Faith
Faith is at the heart of everything we do. While we proudly embrace our Lutheran heritage, we warmly welcome children of all backgrounds and beliefs. Through age-appropriate Bible lessons and hands-on experiences, we introduce young learners to the wonders of God’s love and creation. At Calvary, every day is an opportunity for spiritual growth and joyful discovery.
Healthy Bodies, Healthy Minds
Physical well-being is essential for optimal learning and development. That is why at Calvary, we offer a variety of opportunities for active play and hands-on exploration. We have outdoor and indoor gross motor spaces where we provide plenty of outlets for energetic movement. Through art, sensory activities, and fine motor skill exercises, we empower children to express themselves creatively and strengthen their motor skills.

My kids have both been students of Calvary this school year, one in the kindergarten class and one in the 4’s class, and I am very happy with the experience they are both having.
The thing I appreciate most about Calvary is the personal attention that the kids receive due to the small class size. The kids are not lost in a sea of students, and both have a trusting relationship with their teachers due to the amount of time and attention they are able to give them. An additional benefit we see is the creativity and uniqueness of the crafts and art projects they are able to lead because of the smaller classes. I’m often touched and surprised by the creations the kids bring home from school.
I was initially nervous about enrolling my daughter in the kindergarten class at Calvary, because we are in Franklin Regional School district, which is so well known for being an excellent school with a challenging curriculum. Now that I’ve observed my daughter’s learning over the school year and see how she’s flourishing in her reading, math and social studies, I know I made the right choice for her. I would argue that the quality of education she is receiving at Calvary equals or exceeds what she would have received in Franklin’s kindergarten program. With half a year left to go, my daughter is reading simple books, understanding phonics, counting by 5 and 10’s, doing math in her head, and teaching me bible verses.
Last, but not least, Calvary is a Christian school. I greatly value the spiritual and moral education the kids are both receiving in addition to the academic lessons. We love CELC!
I have put two children through Calvary Learning Center Kindergarten program. The preparedness that my children have going into first grade has been phenomenal.
Their reading level is on point, as well as math and critical thinking skills. Mrs. Hoff is truly exceptional at her job. Her creative talents and nurturing ability shine through in her teaching role. The environment is Christ centered, joyful, clean, and safe. Another wonderful bonus is the hands on, one on one learning kindergartens receive. The small class size makes for an ideal learning environment. My children have been very happy at Calvary and so have I.
Calvary Early Learning Center is a wonderful and nurturing pre-school, with a purposeful and age-appropriate curriculum. I have two children enrolled in Calvary classes. A daughter enrolled in the two year old program and a son enrolled in the three year old program. Both of my children are thriving at Calvary and they are developing a deep love for school and learning.
The teacher of the two year old class, Miss Jess, is warm, caring and gentle. She truly treats your child as her own. I have observed her helping the youngest students feel comfortable, secure and at home in the classroom.
Miss Megan, the teacher of the three year old program radiates positive energy and patience with her students. My son glows when he talks about Miss Megan and his friends in the three year old class!
Both Miss Jess and Miss Megan have excellent classroom management skills and are great at communicating with parents about their child’s academic and social development.
I am truly happy with the preschool programs, experience and environment at Calvary. In my opinion, it is a top-notch pre-school program with fantastic teachers. The entire Calvary community has been warm and welcoming from day one. I highly recommend this school to anyone looking for a great pre-school program.
My son John, started at CELC back in 2019 with the 2 year old preschool class. He continued on with the 3 year old preschool, Pre-K class and finally with Kindergarten. Throughout his time there, he has been well cared for in regards to his education and spiritual growth. Not only this, but he has truly been loved by all of the teachers and staff within the school! He is currently in 1st grade and is doing wonderfully in school! I truly believe that this was in large part due to the love, care and education he received while at CELC. I highly recommend CELC to anyone looking for a preschool setting for their children!!
