ABOUT THE JUDY CENTER...
The Judy Center Early Learning Hub is a collaboration of many public and non-profit agencies in St. Mary’s County Maryland dedicated to providing comprehensive, community-based early learning services for children birth through kindergarten and their families in the Green Holly, George Washington Carver, and Lexington Park Elementary School zones. We believe that all children should enter school ready to learn and that families are the foundation for their children's school success. The Judy Center provides many learning opportunities and fun, free family activities to promote school readiness.
Judy Center programming is developed with funds from the Maryland State Department of Education, Division of Early Childhood.

Do you live in one of the three Judy Center school zones and are interested in attending playgroups with your little one birth-age five not yet in school?

Playgroups are held at all 3 Judy Center Early Learning Hub locations and are a great way to meet other parents and particpate in fun learning activities with your little one!
