Our Mission
The mission of State Line Children’s World is to provide a safe, nurturing environment for students that satisfies their needs, fosters their desire to learn, and encourages them to embrace diversity. We aim to do this through value sharing and by establishing a strong foundation for lifelong educational success.
“The goal of early childhood education should be to activate the child’s own natural desire to learn.”

Our Philosophy
We believe that all children deserve to be active participants in the realization of their individual potential. Furthermore, we think that an educated and loving staff is crucial to maintaining a high quality early childhood education program. By investing in the community, we hope that Laurinburg is better able to provide for itself in the future. For us, school is primarily about children, families, the environment, and the broader world.
