Our school is a recipient of an\u00a0Arts@Large<\/a>\u00a0grant. This grant brings opportunities for students to learn through the arts. Arts@Large has built an exemplary program that links community artist educators and higher education with teachers and students to create an atmosphere of arts-infused learning.<\/p>\n Scouting America (SA), formerly Boy Scouts of America, is one of the nation\u2019s largest and most prominent values-based youth development organizations. SA provides a program for young people that builds character, trains them in the responsibilities of participating citizenship, and develops personal fitness. For over a century, the SA has helped build the future leaders of this country by combining educational activities and lifelong values with fun. Scouting America believes \u2014 and, through over a century of experience, knows \u2014 that helping youth is a key to building a more conscientious, responsible, and productive society. We are part of the Milwaukee County Council.<\/p>\n In\u00a0Girl Scouts<\/a>, girls discover the fun, friendship, and power of girls together. Through a myriad of enriching experiences, such as extraordinary field trips, sports skill-building clinics, community service projects, cultural exchanges, and environmental stewardships, girls grow courageous and strong. Girl Scouting helps girls develop their full individual potential; relate to others with increasing understanding, skill, and respect; develop values to guide their actions and provide the foundation for sound decision-making; and contribute to the improvement of society through their abilities, leadership skills, and cooperation with others.\u00a0Our troop is part of the\u00a0Girl Scouts of Wisconsin \u2013 Southeast<\/a>.<\/p>\n The High\/Scope program offers a preschool to age eight curriculum model that provides appropriate activities for each stage of a child\u2019s mental and physical growth. Teachers are trained to use the High\/Scope method and the classroom is equipped to support the child\u2019s learning skills acquired in preschool and elementary school.<\/p>\n Homework First is an initiative taking place in more than three dozen elementary schools in the Milwaukee Public Schools system that makes learning a team effort for children from the city\u2019s low-income neighborhoods. Beginning in second grade, the program uses incentives, parental support, and the encouragement of community members to help students understand that handing in their assignments on time is a major responsibility. Homework First is made possible by funding from the Helen Bader Foundation.<\/p>\nScouting America<\/h2>\n
