Our 4K Program

About The Program

Since 1979 the School District of Belleville has had a Pre-School or Pre-K program with the current 4K program starting in 2013. The Belleville 4K program uses the Wisconsin Model Early Learning Standards to guide planning of appropriate expectations, opportunities and assessment. Our students will begin the year learning about themselves, making friends, and getting to know their classroom and school.

Our 4K program is located in the Belleville Elementary School at 101 S. Grant Street. Classes are held four days a week, Tuesday-Friday. The morning session will run 8:00-11am and the afternoon session will be 12:15-3:15pm.

What is 4K Screening?

The purpose of Belleville’s 4K Screening is to pre-register eligible children for the upcoming school year. Children will participate in a variety of play based assessments with the current 4K staff as well as receive a vision screening. Parents will be provided information about the school year program, summer school options and developmental milestones. This is an important step for families to ensure they are connected with the School District of Belleville and to help prepare children for their educational journey.

Any child who will be 4-years-old by September 1st of the following fall and plans to enroll in 4K at that time should plan on attending 4K screening.

When is 4K screening held?
