Early Years
Our Early Years program begins with Preschool (for children who are three years old by September 1), continues with Pre-Kindergarten (for four-year-olds), and concludes with Kindergarten. All Early Years programs are French Immersion or Spanish Immersion.
Early YEARS @WIS
- Children of all language backgrounds comprise our Early Years cohort.
- Preschool and Pre-Kindergarten students investigate four PYP Units of Inquiry during the year.
- The Units alternate so a child who is at WIS for both Preschool and Pre-Kindergarten will not study the same Unit twice.
- The program for Preschool is developmentally adjusted, recognizing students may require extra rest or additional time to adapt to an immersion classroom.
The program is structured as follows: one French and one Spanish classroom of Preschool; one French and one Spanish classroom of Pre-Kindergarten; two French and two Spanish classrooms of Kindergarten.
