Kids Center
Welcome to the GEARS Kids Center!
GEARS Kids Center has served the Greater Elizabethtown Area since 1989. In cooperation with the Elizabethtown Area School District we are fortunate to hold our Before & After Programs at Bainbridge Elementary, East High Elementary, and Bear Creek Elementary Schools during the school year.
About The Kids Center
Our Preschool and Kindergarten Wrap Around Programs are housed at the GEARS Community Center on 70 South Poplar Street. Kindergarten aged children during the school year attend an enrichment program at the Community Center half of the day and attend Elizabethtown Area School District Kindergarten at East High Elementary or Bainbridge Elementary. We love to watch our children grow in academics and social skills. GEARS Kids Center is licensed through the Department of Human Services and the Office of Child Development and Early Learning.
GEARS maintains a STAR 4 status with the Pennsylvania Keystone STARS program through Childcare Consultants, LLC.
