The Creative Learning Center was established in 1991 by Clayton First United Methodist Church to provide Rabun County and surrounding areas with a Christian non-denominational school for the pre-school aged child. We are committed to providing a variety of learning experiences which will mature the Spiritual, mental, emotional, physical and social development of each child.

Our goal is to provide a Christian atmosphere in which love, prayer, Bible study, understanding and concern help to meet the needs of each child. We also offer a well-balanced curriculum involving language, music, art, math, science and social studies as well as opportunities for social and physical development. CLC began with just 19 students and three teachers and grew very quickly. Those who were there at the time were very aware that is was the Lord who was building His school at His chosen place. Along with CLC, there had been two other half-day Christian preschools and two daycare facilities in the county. One by one these facilities closed over the years, leaving CLC as the only private care center for preschool aged children in Rabun County.
