Experience PAC Campus Life Youth Education Ray Ellison Family Center

Ray Ellison Family Center

The Ray Ellison Family Center offers an early childhood program that supports each child's social, emotional, cognitive, language, and physical development. Teachers create lesson plans based on the child's interests, ideas, and early learning needs. Additionally, parents are an essential part of our program, and we aim to establish a respectful partnership with student parents/guardians and keep the lines of communication open.

Highlights
  • Frog Street curriculum for overall development and well-being of each child through a play-based approach
  • Income-based childcare at no cost to PAC student families
  • Attend class knowing that your child is in good hands
