Preschool

We provide a nationally accredited program for preschool children from 2 to 4 years old.  The preschool is open Monday through Friday during our regular hours of center operations. UWSP students, faculty, staff, alumni, and community may apply.

A positive early start sets the stage for later learning. Our Preschool classes offer opportunities to allow children to build on their level of understanding.

We encourage:

• Mastering large and small motor skills
• Awareness of five senses
• Developing good self image
• Mastering more independence and self help
• Self expression skills
• Developing healthy social relations
• Respecting diversity
• Relationships in place, size, weight, numbers, letters, etc.
• Clarification of color geometric spaces, family, animals, foods, etc.
• Exploring language, art, drama, music, science, literature
• Encouraging curiosity and problem solving
• Enhancing creativity in play and thought

The curriculum is developmentally appropriate and atmosphere is age-appropriate, family centered and nurturing.
