Peshtigo offers 4-year-old kindergarten to any child who resides in the Peshtigo School district who is 4 years of age on, or before, September 1st of the given school-year. Our half-day sessions run Monday through Thursday with morning classes meeting from 8:00-11:10 and afternoon classes meeting from 12:00-3:10. Busing is offered to afternoon students who reside outside the city limits and any student who attends our local daycare programs. The program includes a strong focus on parent-school communication with regular family outreach opportunities and conferences. Our activity based, developmentally appropriate programs are taught by highly qualified Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction licensed teachers.
| Our Philosophy We believe that children learn best through play. In a hands-on, center-based environment, we strive to provide our students with opportunities to make choices by exploring, investigating and socializing among others their own age. Our pre-kindergarten program incorporates the development of social skills in order for children to solve problems independently and communicate with one another. “Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood.” – Fred Rogers |
