Growing independence, and a sense of self and of community begin to emerge in the preschool years. Our preschool classrooms offer a wide variety of program choices and services to meet the unique needs of our children and families. Creative Curriculum for Preschool  is the curriculum used to guide learning that is based on the Illinois Early Learning and Development Standards.
