CURRICULUM

Our curriculum aligns to the Wisconsin Model Early Leaning Standards (WMELS). To view standards, click here.

During the course of the school year, thematic units are taught which often focus on the changes of the seasons, holidays, science concepts, and additional topics that help the children discover new things about themselves and the world in which they live. The thematic units vary in length due to the time of year and the level of student interest.
