Superior Community Preschool is currently accepting enrollments for the 2015-16 school year.  SCP is often referred to as “4K” which stands for Four Year Old Kindergarten.  The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction suggests models for implementing 4K in school districts across Wisconsin.  Superior School District chose a combination model that allows for nearly every child to take part in 4K in a setting that meets family needs.  Our model of 4K is called Superior Community Preschool or SCP for short.  It is a model that offers 4K in Superior School District Elementary Schools, Childcare Centers, Cathedral School, and Family Forum Head Start.

School District Sites

For the 2015-16 school year there will be SCP 4K in five of our six elementary schools.  School sites are found at Cooper Elementary in Billings Park, Four Corners Elementary near Pattison State Park, Great Lakes Elementary next to the Mariner Mall, Lake Superior Elementary just east of town in the Itasca/Nakoma Gardens area, and Bryant Elementary in South Superior.  Students who live in the Four Corners and Lake Superior attendance area are bussed to and from their 4K site.  4K students at other school site are eligible for transportation based on transportation guidelines.  Students are eligible to receive Special Education services in our school sites.

Community Partners

Pre-K Services StudentsSites other than those in our elementary buildings are referred to as Community Partner Sites.  Wisconsin DPI licensed teachers are employed by each of our sites in the 4K Classrooms.  For the 2015-16 school year our Community Partner Sites can be found at Cathedral School, Newborn 2 School Education, New Horizons Children’s Center, Noah’s Ark Daycare, Superior Children’s Center, YMCA Superior, and Family Forum Head Start.  All of our Community Partner Sites except Family Forum Head Start provide wrap-around care for the time that children are not in the SCP 4K Class at a charge to families.  This is a great option for families that require child care services.  Although our child care centers can give placement preference to those families needing wrap-around care, it is not a requirement.

Is SCP 4K for You?

If you child is 4 by September 1st he or she meets the criteria for SCP 4K in the setting of your choice.  Enrollment is on a first-come, first-serve basis for choice of sites so don’t delay—call us today.
