Our Special Work with Parents and the Community

We embrace the village concept – that it truly takes an entire village to raise a child. It is why we named our preschool “One City.” We know that when the entire community works to benefit children, they will have a strong chance to succeed.

Their success depends on what all of us do to pave the way for them – their parents, their peers, their teachers, their neighbors, their community, policy makers, and you and us.

Through our One City Family Engagement Team and activities, and the support and involvement of great partners, we will provide resources, information and a network of support for families that help them raise happy, healthy and successful children.

Through a robust network of partnership, we connect parents and their children with many opportunities in the Greater Madison community to move themselves and their children forward.

A school like no other in Wisconsin!

Open For Enrollment

Excitement about learning starts 'before' our children enter kindergarten.
