|  Our Savior’s: Lake Area Discovery Center is a nonprofit Christian-based early childhood experience for children birth to age five. LADC seeks to support parents and children through a creative environment that promotes and teaches Christian values, honors diversity, and fosters fellowship within the total community. This unique partnership between Our Savior’s and the Lake Area Discovery Center provides program options September through the first week of June. LADC also offers a variety of summer camp options that feature hands-on learning within the classrooms with our licensed teachers.
Lake Area Discovery only hires licensed, four-year degreed early-childhood or kindergarten certified lead teachers who design classroom environments using a center approach to learning. Children move between learning centers.
This is a licensed program. Our facilities and all of our teachers meet state licensing requirements by the Department of Human Services. LADC partners with our Children & Family Ministry Team to co-plan 3 family events and Vacation Bible School. Janet Miller is the Executive Director and Stephanie Christianson is our Site Director.
