At Betty J. Taylor Early Learning Academy (BJTELA), we focus on early childhood education. Our center, which sits on 4 acres overlooking Tulalip Bay, serves children from birth to age 6. We’re thrilled to announce that we now offer kindergarten in addition to our existing preschool and Montessori classes.
BJTELA offers an Early Head Start program for children from birth to 3 years old and a preschool program for children aged 3 to 5. The preschool program includes different options, such as ECEAP and Montessori. BJTELA believes that every child should have access to quality education. Eligible students can attend school for free.

Read MoreBJTELA provides referral services to children and families including Music Therapy, Reflective Network Therapy, Speech Therapy, and we partner with Marysville School District to provide Developmental Preschool.
Read MoreOur academy children and families will be engaged in the culturally rich Lushootseed language to develop strong cultural values and traditions through classroom and family engagement opportunities. Academic success will be achieved through home and school experiences in Lushootseed language, cultural values, and participation in evidence–based curriculum resulting in every child being healthy, capable, and confident in school, life, and cultural identity.
Our children are capable and confident in our Lushootseed language, our cultural values, teachings, academics, and in life based on strong families, community, traditional lifeways, and a coordinated early learning education system. Our children are life–long learners.
Our programs serve children and families in Tulalip and the Marysville School District service area.
