Facilities
Lower Campus
Our Texaco Road campus sits on five wooded acres with beautiful gardens, providing a welcoming setting for the main school building, Providence House, the Toddler Loft, and the Founders’ Arts and Activities Building.
The main building houses eight classrooms, the life lab, technology and Spanish rooms, our school library, and administrative offices. Each level—Primary, Lower Elementary, and Upper Elementary—has its own wing, with shared spaces for lunches and activities. The life lab is equipped for science experiments, complete with microscopes, a teaching kitchen, and a greenhouse. The library, home to more than 10,000 volumes, is led by a full-time librarian. The Founders’ Arts and Activities Building includes an art studio, a music classroom, and a half-gym used for physical education and after-school programs. The Toddler program takes place in Providence House and the Toddler Loft.
Beyond the classrooms, students enjoy outdoor learning and play in our amphitheater—built as an Eagle Scout project—as well as on three age-appropriate playgrounds, one each for toddlers, primary, and elementary students.
Erdkinder Campus
The Middle School campus, located on 2.5 acres near downtown Lexington, is comprised of two buildings. The main classroom building, over 100 years old and rich in central Kentucky history, houses six classrooms and a full commercial kitchen where students regularly cook and bake. The second building, our Community Center, provides space for school-wide gatherings and special activities.
Outdoor learning is central to the middle school experience. The campus includes fruit trees, blackberry bushes, and areas designated for gardens, with plans for continued growth as students propose new projects. Students also raise chickens and care for beehives, developing responsibility while connecting with the natural world.
In addition, the campus adjoins a city park that offers basketball, tennis, and baseball facilities, further expanding opportunities for recreation and community connection.
Our three children have thrived at Providence.The atmosphere there is one that is very difficult to put into words.The mutual respect between the children and the teachers is prevelent. Just this one important factor , I feel,sets the stage for an incredible amount of learning.
- Providence Parent
We can not say enough about the quality of education and developmental nurturing that our daughter has received at Providence. They stress each child’s ability to be strong and independent, as well as emphasize that each child progresses differently. We are so happy that we chose to send our daughter to Providence and would highly recommend them to any parents looking to place their child.
