We are excited to be your child's first experience in education. We look forward to nurturing and helping your child grow. There are many new and exciting worlds that await your child, and we look forward to introducing them to the world of learning along with you as a partner. We know that this is only the beginning to the successful experience that they will have in Roanoke Rapids Graded School District.  

Welcome to Clara Hearne Early Childhood Center! 

Pre-K is a wonderful and fun time for children to learn, explore, and grow. It is a time for children to interact with new environments and people all while engaging in socially and educationally appropriate activities. We strive to not only prepare all students for kindergarten, but to begin building the foundation for a strong educational career. Our goal is to ensure a positive and challenging educational experience based on each individual student's needs.
