Purpose and Direction

Our purpose is to provide exemplary early care and education through the use of early childhood best practices within a safe and caring environment for children and families in the UW Oshkosh learning community, our collaborating partners and the Oshkosh community.

Because we believe that children learn best through play and active engagement in their learning environment, we purposefully plan and implement meaningful experiences based on the Wisconsin Model Early Learning Standards and Guiding Principles. To assure that all children are successful, we partner with parents and use information gained from observation and individual assessment to intentionally teach and support the learning and development of each child.
