Who are we?

We are a learning cooperative made up of parents, grandparents, educators, and community members who care about learning opportunities for youth in our community. We started as a small playgroup that evolved into a parent-led toddler program and eventually became the Mountain Laurel Learning Cooperative (MLLC), a non-profit educational organization.

What parents are saying

“MLLC is an education for our whole family — it has fueled our family’s love of learning and set the stage for ongoing discovery in our home, as well as when our son is in the classroom.”

— Sarah Hunt, MLLC parent
