Collaboration and partnerships with the community lie at the heart of Maryland’s Judy Center Early Learning Hubs. Judy Centers aren't childcare centers. They're a comprehensive hub where families can participate in family learning experiences and receive services and support.

Judy Centers empower a child’s first teachers — their families — by supporting child development and early learning skills for our youngest learners from birth through kindergarten. ACPS operates two grant-funded Judy Centers, one at South Penn Elementary and one at Westmar Middle.

Our Judy Center Early Learning Hub has its own website that's full of great information, schedule of events, and program contacts.

Judy Center services include:

  • Early Learners Playgroups
  • Playgroup Field Trips
  • Summer Camp
  • Community Baby Showers
  • Early Childhood Festival
  • School Readiness Fair
  • Case Management
