Our 4K and Sonshine Learning Center teachers are trained in early childhood processes, techniques, and methods to truly enhance brain development, growth, and learning activities according to research and evidence based practices:
*S.M.A.R.T. curriculum program
*occupational and environmental teaching, classroom management, and regulation strategies
* alignment with the Wisconsin Model Early Learning Standards for children ages 0-6, in addition to the state teaching standards for 4K
*the Pyramid Model (as one of a few state of Wisconsin, child care, center-wide Implementation Sites).
Our Academy team are Pyramid CHAMPIONS, meaning they have earned the highest level of social and emotional teaching practices!!
*Early Childhood Environmental Rating Scales
All of these strategies work together to provide the highest quality, research-based, academic, social, and emotional environment for your child. *Assessments, progress reports, and scheduled main curriculum are the same across the New Richmond School District 4K sites*
Our 4K teachers continue to be Allison Firestone, Libby Braaten, and Kayla Grender for the school year. Our wrap around teachers, Miss Ashley L and Miss Abby work closely with Mrs. Firestone, Miss Braaten, and Mrs. Grender to meet the educational, social, emotional, Sonshine, and district goals of our 4K students. Our Sonshine team provides continuous care (or looping with the same teacher for multiple years) at all levels, up to and sometimes including 4K wrap around.
