U-GRO is honored to have been chosen to serve direct and manage the Grace Milliman Pollock Childcare Center at HACC’s main campus. Our modern facility is conveniently located right on campus which makes it easier to serve the needs of student families while they attend class. But we also serve families not attending HACC that may just live or work in the area. Besides location we feature six classrooms two large indoor play areas and an exciting outdoor playground. It’s truly a wonderful environment to learn and play! But that’s only part of the story.
The best part is our team of dedicated U-GRO teaching professionals. They really make our program flow! Director Anna Ileto leads a terrific staff of engaged individuals who enthusiastically bring the U-GRO Blended Model curriculum to life.
But there’s more. This is an actual Lab School! HACC professors teach classes on the premises and students volunteer and perform observations as part of their college curriculum.

U-GRO is committed to provide the highest quality early childhood education through our proprietary Blended Model curriculum. The Blended Model was conceived to provide a balanced approach to classroom learning. It provides opportunities for structured activities (teacher directed) as well as investigative (child-led) discovery. We then align our program content and goals to the Pennsylvania Learning Standards for Early Childhood.
The Blended Model curriculum is brought to life by U-GRO teachers who are positive and share a love of children. They look for teachable moments and work to capture childrens interest in all they do. By making observations throughout their planned lessons teachers discover childrens interests. This leads to investigations and the study of concepts that children are excited to explore.
The environment at U-GRO is well-planned and creative. Activities support child-choice and self-directed play small groups and circle-times with the whole group. Classes are organized developmentally and according to age which ensures that daily lesson plans are tailored to individual needs and hands-on learning fun!
