The Abacus Advantage: Why We Stand Out As a Great Choice for Your Child Care Needs Abacus Early Learning Centers stress the importance of taking the child to the activity and not the activity to the child. We offer an indoor gym, a size appropriate cafeteria, and numerous outdoor playgrounds in addition to state approved classrooms.Abacus believes that educational excellence is achieved through a systematically organized environment where the teacher creates intentional learning opportunities that offer hands on experiences. Children are offered structured learning centers, small and large group activities, and individualized experiences on a daily basis. Through observation and assessment teachers will develop an educational plan based on individual strengths and challenges.
