MCCS-SC Child, Youth and Teen Programs

We believe it is our responsibility to prepare an environment with a variety of exciting learning experiences and to observe, oversee and nurture each child’s progress through these experiences. We further believe that approaching children in a positive, consistent and warm manner is highly effective. Our program provides opportunities for each child to experience successes, which contributes to a growing sense of self-worth and personal joy in learning.
