Emmaus, PA – The East Penn Chamber of Commerce and the Emmaus Main Street Partners, both proud partners of the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce, would like to congratulate Active Learning Centers (or ALC as it is commonly referred to) on their 20th Anniversary!
Active Learning Centers started as a Martial Arts summer camp in 1998 then grew to a licensed childcare center in 2005. Since that time, they have transformed into one of the top childcare companies within the Lehigh Valley. In the early years, ALC was a school age center providing before and after school care, but as the needs of the community grew, it evolved into a full childcare facility serving children from Infant through 8th Grade.
Not only did the age of the students in which they serve grow, but so did the business; from one location in Emmaus to 5 locations across the Lehigh Valley, serving approximately 700 children and employing over 180 people.
Their mission of believing in, pushing, and inspiring everyone to continually become a better version of themselves, stems from the foundational principles and values of martial arts. Through a family environment and a commitment to no televisions, video games or screens in their classrooms, the teachers engage the students in hands-on learning, encouraging exploration, creativity and real world discovery both inside and outside the classroom.
