School District of River Falls

What does the program cost?

There is no cost to families for the regularly scheduled hours of the program, no matter at which of the eight sites your child is placed. Wisconsin's school funding system provides funding for 4-Year-Old Kindergarten programs based on the number of students enrolled.
If parents choose to purchase child care services before and/or after the RF4C day, parents will pay the rate established by each individual site for the contracted services provided.

What will my child learn?

Children will participate in play activities that provide rich learning experiences. As an early education program, RF4C will focus on early literacy, language, and social-emotional skills, but also include math, science, health, physical education, art, and music. Young children learn by doing and exploring in an integrated, nurturing environment. A typical day would include some teacher-directed instruction, many “hands-on” activities, and opportunities for child-initiated play.
