PRE-SCHOOL & 4K

Children learn about the world around them—all with the help of trained and caring youth development staff. Our licensed Pre-School and 4K programs provide children with developmentally appropriate experiences in a self-initiated, hands-on discovery environment that allows children to explore, examine, manipulate and discover while thinking independently and solving problems.

Registration for the 2024-25 school year begins January 22 for Y Members and January 29 for the General Public.

Our 4K Wrap-Around Care for the Appleton, Horvonville, Kimberly and Kaukuana School districts is a convenient option for parents who need care before or after school, and offers children a stress-free transition in a fun and engaging environment.  4K Wrap-Around registration dates vary by district and occur after each district has placed their children in their 4K classroom.
