Glassboro Child Development Centers

The mission of the Glassboro Child Development Centers (GCDC) is to provide programs and enrichment for children and youth that offer opportunities that empower and assist parents with the social, emotional, physical and cognitive development of their children.

Description:
The Glassboro Child Development Centers (GCDC) have been shaping young minds and changing the face of early childhood education for more than 30 years. Currently we provide weekly and daily childcare for infants, toddlers, preschool, Pre-K, Kindergarten and School-Age Children, with an average monthly enrollment of 330 children. GCDC also operates Camp Horizon for School-Age Children and Camp Rainbow for preschoolers. GCDC has administrative offices at 31 South Main Street, a preschool at 35 South Main Street and School-Age programs at the Dorothy L. Bullock, Thomas E. Bowe and Teen Academy at Glassboro Intermediate School.


History:
GCDC opened June 23, 1969, at the First Presbyterian Church on Yale Road. It was incorporated in May, 1970. When it first opened, the non-profit agency’s pilot program reflected years of planning by local groups including the Community Action Committee and the Glassboro Ministerium, composed of area churches.

GCDC started at a time when early childhood education was a concept few people embraced. That attitude changed dramatically over the years as two-income families increased and medical information was revealed about the importance of stimulating young minds between birth and three years.
