The Wabasso Early Childhood Department offers a School Readiness Preschool Program, for children who will be 4-years-old by September 1, 2024.

The goal of the program is to provide young children with opportunities that support the necessary skills to progress and flourish into kindergarten. The children will learn, explore, and discover in a developmentally appropriate classroom setting while interacting with their peers and a licensed Early Childhood Teacher. Children learn best through being actively involved in their surroundings. Activities provided will be hands-on and self-directed with-in limits. We also implement free play which has been studied and proven to be very beneficial. Free play may look like leisure time; however, the children are learning how to make decisions, use their imagination, and are learning important life skills to prepare their growing brains for adulthood. Play helps them grow socially, emotionally, and cognitively while building their self-esteem, confidence, and comfort level in a school environment.

With our OWL curriculum, the students will be exposed to daily Literacy, Math, Science, Social Studies, Fine/Large Motor, Music, and Technology activities. In addition, the program is proud to partner and offer Minnesota Early Reading Corps’ Literacy and Math Based Program. A member is co-hired to work within the classroom daily to help enrich the children with the literacy and math skills they will need to be successful in kindergarten.
 
**Your child must be potty-trained to be enrolled in School Readiness.
