2024-2025 4K Information

The focus of 4K is learning through play! Students learn social-emotional skills, problem solving skills, and academic knowledge in a fun, joyful environment that involves plenty of hands-on learning. 4K students also take part in PE and library specials.

Wrap Care Program

This optional child care would be provided before or after your child's scheduled 4K class. This program is currently only available at Taylor Prairie School for students in Cottage Grove.

Because 4K classes only run a half day, we understand that families have expressed a need for full-day child care, and we are excited to offer a program to meet this need. Because this child care would occur right at Taylor Prairie School, staff would be able to escort your child to their 4K classroom.

This child care program is separate from the 4K class. This is child care, not an extension of the school day. The class size will be limited to 20, with two child care providers serving in each classroom.

This half-day care will include unstructured, outdoor and indoor play, project time, rest time and a snack. Students will need to bring their own lunch and drink from home.

The program fee will be $150/week*. If you choose extended care from 2:40-5:00, there we be an additional fee of $75/week*. Childcare will also be provided for all Staff Professional days for an additional $30 per day*. Care will not be provided on designated "Vacation Days". (*Fees are subject to change.)

Transportation will not be provided to or from wrap-around care, but is available for your child's regular 4K class session.

FAQs

Studies show that children who receive quality early childhood education are more likely to be successful throughout their school years. Our 4-year-old kindergarten program is a play-based program designed to nurture the social, emotional and early literacy skills of four-year-old children. It does not replace Kindergarten. If your child is four years old on or before September 1, 2024, they are eligible for our 4K program. Click here to register.
