Creating firm foundations for the next generation since 1964.
Developing Life-Long Learners.
Our Teachers.
Our teachers are passionate about our PBELC kids. Every lead teacher has the Child Development Association Credential™ or a higher education degree. PBELC teachers are highly qualified professionals dedicated to laying a foundation for a lifetime of learning for our students.
Our Curriculum.
PBELC blends WEE Learn® by LifeWay Christian Resources with The Creative Curriculum® by Teaching Strategies to provide a biblically-based, state-approved instruction. Through immersive activities and hands-on experiences, kids learn the truths of scripture while preparing for elementary school.
Our Classrooms.
The classrooms at PBELC are safe, stimulating learning environments where curiosity is always welcome. We believe children learn best by doing, so our classrooms provide opportunities for physical activity, language development, social interaction, self expression, and creativity.
Our Facilities.
PBELC is housed in the education wing of Parkview Baptist Church in Metairie, LA. We offer nine classrooms, a reading library, a therapy room for licensed professionals to work with children, and three separate playgrounds for age-appropriate outdoor play.
Our Church Family.
PBELC shares a rich spiritual history with our parent organization, Parkview Baptist Church. PBC exists to help people grow in Christ and share Him with others. If you don’t currently have a church home, consider joining us at Parkview Baptist Church!
Our Impact.
PBELC has made a tremendous impact in the Metairie and Kenner area over the years. Our ministry allows parents to serve our community in a variety of industries, and our graduates have grown up to become passionate and valuable members of our community.
