Waukesha to use child care centers for 4-K classes

Erin Richards:

bout 15 local child care centers are likely to host the Waukesha School District's new half-day, 4-year-old kindergarten program next year, a district curriculum and instruction coordinator said.

Deb Wells, the district coordinator for the new 4-K program and coordinator for kindergarten and elementary social studies, said her staff is conducting site visits at 15 or 16 community child care sites in Waukesha to determine that they meet high standards for 4-K instruction.

Wells said that about 20 community sites applied to be a part of the program.

Of the 15 or 16 they've settled on, Wells said, the district will likely work with most if not all of them.
