Winter 2010 BELC Update (Jan 27, 2010)
The Baraboo Early Learning Cooperative (BELC) four-year-old kindergarten program offered by the School District of Baraboo continues to flourish during it's first year of implementation. Currently, 132 students participate in a morning or afternoon session at one of the four program sites located in the Baraboo community. The site locations include St. Clare Tommy Bartlett's Child Care, Children's Day Center, Sunshine Playhouse, and Renewal Unlimited Head Start. At each site, learning activities are lead by DPI licensed teachers. Students learn through daily opportunities to increase early literacy and early math skills along with social and motor skills by participating in routines, lessons, story times, and play experiences. Class sizes average about 17 students. Each class is supported by at least two staff members.
