The goal of the Grove Children's Preschool program is to meet the developmental and individual needs of all children in a safe, inclusive and nurturing environment, while promoting educational success through engaging and collaborative learning experiences.

Grove Children's Preschool is a blended program, meaning that tuition students, students identified as having special education needs, and students identified as being at risk for future academic difficulties due to cultural or socio-economic factors are taught in the same classroom.

District 58 also has one preschool screening remaining in the 2013-14 school year, which will take place March 10 at Henry Puffer School, 2220 Haddow Ave. Screenings are intended to evaluate development in children ages 2 years 10 months old to 5 years old.

Screenings take place between 8:30 and 11 a.m., and are free to District 58 residents. Concerned parents who have not had their child screened for speech, vision, hearing, learning or behavioral needs are encouraged to call (630) 719-5800 to schedule an appointment.
