Why Junior Kindergarten/Kindergarten (JKK)?

In recent years, we have identified a need in our community for a more innovative approach to Kindergarten. This need has evolved not only based on birthdays and cut off dates for entering Kindergarten and/or First Grade but also and most importantly, the individual needs of each student. At Children’s Learning Program, our JKK class is a classroom made up of rising Kindergarteners (needing a more academic challenge) and rising First Graders. Each child in this class will have their individual academic goals met as well as their social and emotional growth enriched by participating in this class. The benefits of this opportunity are endless for each child’s growth fostering leadership and confidence through individualized instruction and multi-leveled enrichment. The JKK curriculum is based on Kindergarten Standards for the State of Indiana and for Zionsville Schools. Each child will move at his or her own pace through the curriculum which will create success and confidence building for that child. Each child will have individualized instruction and goals to meet the end of the year benchmark as a rising Kindergartener or a rising First Grader.
