Our Curriculum

“We believe that early childhood education is a crucial foundation for a lifetime of learning and growth. Heaven Sent Early Learning Center follows a curriculum that was created by our very own director, Shantoria Edwards. Ms. Tori is currently a doctoral candidate at Liberty University, completing her studies in curriculum development. Academic Pathway is the curriculum our students follow beginning at one year of age.

This curriculum is developmentally appropriate for all ages. With Academic Pathway, students will participate in language arts, reading, math, science, music, arts and crafts, and many other hands-on learning activities.”
