About LCV
LCV (Clarkston) opened in October 2024 as our third Enriched Beginnings Learning Center location, marking an intentional step into a new community. This expansion represented growth with purpose — bringing the heart of EBLC beyond our original roots while remaining grounded in what matters most.
LCV challenged us to expand thoughtfully, to listen deeply, and to build with care in a new setting. From the beginning, this location reminded us that meaningful growth happens when spaces are created with intention and connection.
LCV reflects EBLC’s commitment to building environments where children can grow, explore, and thrive, while staying true to the values that define who we are.
