Virtue-Based Early Childhood in the Archdiocese of Milwaukee

Guiding Principles

The Virtue Based Early Childhood Program in the Archdiocese of Milwaukee is committed to providing all children enrolled in their 3 year old, 4 year old, and 5 year old kindergartens a strong religious and academic foundation for all future learning environments. We hope to foster, through hands on experiences and intentional play based curriculum, a sense of wonder and curiosity aimed at developing the social, emotional, physical, intellectual and spiritual aspects of the whole child.

The schools will engage each child in:

  • Higher ordered thinking in a creative environment using sound, developmentally and age-appropriate practice and curriculum based on sound research

  • Intentional age appropriate faith formation.

  • An environment in which the Catholic Christian virtues of Faith, Hope and Love are taught, demonstrated and modeled.

  • Relevant and meaningful play that stimulates the intellectual, social, physical, emotional and spiritual development of the whole child.
