Early Childhood Program DescriptionsDistrict 742 Preschool is taught by licensed early childhood teachers, offers learning experiences using researched-based curricula. In a caring and supportive learning environment, teachers focus on each child's unique skills, needs and learning ability and encourage children's curiosity and exploration. Through hands-on and age-appropriate learning activities, preschool children build confidence and self-direction and learn to follow rules, manage changes and resolve conflicts peacefully. Preschool children build on their interest in book and reading and develop listening, speaking and beginning writing skills. District 742 Preschool is offered at Roosevelt Early Childhood Center, Clearview, Kennedy and Madison Elementary schools. View our Preschool Registration flyer.
