It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.

FOUR YEAR OLD KINDERGARTEN
On Wednesday night, the school board approved an in-district 4K program for Cedarburg students to be implemented in 2016-17! Each of our three elementary schools will have at least 1-2 sections of 4K (based upon enrollment). We're excited at the prospects of offering 4K to our community which allows for:
- Access - Four Year Old Kindergarten is available to ALL students
- Quality - Students are offered a developmentally appropriate and research-based learning experience
- Coherence - Learning in a Cedarburg School District 4K classroom will guarantee students (and their parents) that teaching practices, curriculum and assessment along with rich collaboration opportunities, will contribute to a wonderful first year of learning in a school setting!
More information will be forthcoming. A parent informational session has been set for January followed by registration in February.

“What we resolve to do in school only makes sense when considered in the broader context of what the society intends to accomplish through its educational investment in the young.”
