Welcome to Oak Ridge Early Learning Center!

We are thrilled that you have chosen the Sartell-St. Stephen public school district.  We are the starting point for each child’s Sabre journey.  Our building consists of all district 748 preschool and kindergarten students.  You will find each day that our highly trained staff works diligently to meet every student’s social, emotional, and academic needs.  We pride ourselves on being a safe, respectful, and engaging environment for all young learners.  

Our Little Sabres preschool program has received a 4-star rating from Parent Aware.  We provide comprehensive services for students aging in the range from 3-5 years old.  Our three year old program has two day per week options, and our four/five year olds have three and five day per week choices.  Tuition is based on a sliding fee scale.  Along with our preschool opportunities, we also offer weekly Early Childhood Family Education classes that allow our students and parents to become familiar with the school environment.  

As an early learning center, we also have the opportunity to nurture and observe our district's kindergarten students' growth throughout their first full day educational experience.  We provide best practice instruction utilizing renowned curriculums in literacy, math, science, social studies, and social-emotional learning.  Along with this, our kindergarten students receive 25 minutes of physical education and 25 minutes of music daily.  This exemplifies our commitment to providing each and every student a well rounded educational experience.  

We value a strong partnership with our school families, and I encourage you to reach out with any questions you may have about our learning community.  We are excited to welcome you and your children each and every day to Oak Ridge Early Learning Center!

Yours in Education,
