Our ELC Director

Welcome! Please contact me by calling (941) 377-8074 or emailing preschool@sarasotatemple.org.

Thank you for taking the time to learn about our wonderful school!  The Susan Schwaid Early Learning Center (SSELC) is a place where children feel safe and loved.  Parents know their child is being well cared for while they are learning the essential fundamentals to prepare them for lifelong learning. We are accredited by the National Accreditation Commission for Early Care and Education Programs.

Our building was recently renovated and is beautiful! Wait until you see our playground!  

The SSELC is a nurturing environment with very caring teachers. Our school feels like family, as many of our teachers have been here a very long time. I personally have been with the school over 30 years. Still, with all this experience, our staff regularly attends professional trainings to stay current in the best practices for Early Childhood Education.

I invite you to join our Facebook page to see our happy students in action.
