Kearsley Community Schools established the Pumpkin Patch Child Care and Learning Center, in the Thelma Buffey Elementary building, as a community service.

The staff and programs exemplify the same dedication to fine quality as other Kearsley programs. Our objective is to provide a child-centered program to help fill the serious need for a warm, secure environment with love, good physical care and an atmosphere conducive to learning.

We provide tuition classes for infant, toddler, early preschool, Child Development, Montessori, before and after school Latchkey. We have Great Start to Readiness Program (GSRP) free for qualifying 4 year olds and also house Head Start/GCARD and Early Special Needs Classrooms.
