Children's Center Goes by a New Name

The Loma Linda Children’s Center has a new name: The Loma Linda Academy Children’s Center. The announcement came on July 16 when the sign bearing the new name was revealed to cheers of the children and administration from both campuses. The center provides Christian care and education for children ages three months to five years old. The center opened in the late 1960s as a ministry of the LLU Church that utilized the church’s classrooms during the week. Although it had its own governing board under the direction of the church board, it also received additional leadership support from other institutions over the years including the LLU School of Public Health and the Southeastern California Conference of Seventh-day Adventists. Loma Linda Academy officially welcomed the Children’s Center to complement its TK-12 grade college preparatory program on July 1 of this year. “We assure you that we will continue to provide the same quality care that parents have come to appreciate,” said Doug Herrmann, LLA Headmaster. The Center has seen over 6,000 children pass through their doors. With a convenient location, beautiful facility, 26 full-time staff, and licensing for up to 155 students, the Children’s Center often has a waiting list for enrollment. “This transition has been so smooth that I can only see good things coming from it,” said parent Carol Berger. Children’s Center Director, Julie Majestic has worked at the Children’s Center for over 23 years. “Our relationship with Loma Linda Academy has been wonderful throughout the years, so when the opportunity arose to join forces, it seemed like a perfect fit.” “We are so pleased that the Children’s Center is now a part of the Loma Linda Academy family,” said Herrmann. “Their tradition of excellent preschool care and instruction will be a strong addition to the Academy program. We welcome the faculty, staff, students, and parents into the mission of LLA – to provide a Christ-like, nurturing environment to prepare students spiritually, academically, physically, and socially for higher education, life in a global society, and for eternity."

A city is often judged by what residents experience every day: the condition of its streets, the reliability of public services, the availability of recreational programs and the ease of obtaining information from local government. Behind those everyday experiences are departments and employees whose work rarely attracts national attention.
