The Learning Express Child Development Center

We are excited to announce that The Learning Express will be hosting our annual St. Jude Trike-A-Thon on Wednesday, July 1st! This special riding toy event is open to children aged 3 and older.

The St. Jude Trike-A-Thon is a fun and educational program that helps children learn how they can make a difference while raising money to support the patients and families of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

This year, our center's goal is to raise $2,000 by Friday, July 3rd, 2026. Each child (even those not participating in the riding toy portion) are able to raise money and earn prizes.

Children can register online using the link below:
https://fundraising.stjude.org/TLE2026

There they can create their own fundraising page to earn prizes.

We look forward to helping our children learn about safety, compassion, and giving back to others!

The Learning Express Child Development Center has adopted Pilot K**b Road (North & South), beginning at N. Hwy. 16 Business and ending at S. Hwy. 16 Business through the Adopt-A-Highway program.

Our first clean up day is scheduled for Saturday, June 27th from approximately 9am-12pm. It’s a great way to spend time together, give back, and show our children the importance of caring for the world around them.
