Welcome to Early Learning!

A child's brain grows rapidly from birth to age three, with around 85% of the brain developing by the age of five. Research has shown that a strong, early start to education positively impacts students' learning throughout their school career and beyond. Early childhood is a critical time for children to learn social, emotional, physical and cognitive skills. 

The curriculum used in EVSC early learning programs is based on years of research that believe children are competent, capable and full of potential. In the classroom, children research and learn beside teachers as co-constructors of knowledge. All areas of learning are interwoven into daily exploration and play. Each day is filled with intentional experiences in order to help children learn skills they need to become successful for the rest of their lives. 

The EVSC offers three main early learning programs, including Indiana's On My Way PreK (a free program for qualifying families), a fee-based program, as well as Wee Care, which is exclusively for children of EVSC employees. All programs utilize the same curriculum and instruction is seamless across all early learning programs.
