Caterpillar College, 8411 Old Green Bay Rd, Pleasant Prairie, WI 53158
About
Caterpillar College includes activities such as experimental walking on eggs. The program is described as structured and disciplined, and also described as more fun than children can imagine. Students transition between different specialty rooms, including art, science, and play rooms, throughout the day, and concepts are repeated in group and one-on-one settings.
• Ages: 3–12 years old
• Price: Families who co-op for at least two sessions per month can also receive a small tuition discount.
Caterpillar College is a private school that is not mandated by the state to use a play-based curriculum like preschools that accept state funds or vouchers. The school is described as family-oriented, and parents and other family members can assist, or co-op, at the school. Grandparents are highly valued for the cross-generational perspectives they bring into the classroom. While unattended children should not be left alone in a vehicle, families may arrange to have a staff member escort a child to and from a designated drop off area at the curb as a curbside pickup option.
The program includes two parent teacher conferences each year that evaluate progress across six developmental areas: work habits, social/emotional, language, music and art, physical, and intellectual. The Caterpillar College Camp is described as an integral part of their cobblestone trail and continues to review and expand upon age appropriate academics over the summer months. The summer camp includes exclusive water equipment, remarkable field trips, and extraordinary experiences.
The mission statement for Caterpillar College states that the school has a long tradition of preparing children to be successful in school and in life. The program is described as providing a cobblestone trail for children to transition from a protected toddler at home to a confident independent leader in school. The teachers are described as patient and exceptional, and Mrs. Quinn is the contact person to schedule a tour.
Caterpillar College preschool students tend to read at the first, second, or even third grade level by graduation. The school’s alumni typically become class leaders at their local schools, and in 2017, the co-valedictorians at St. Joseph’s middle school were among seven Caterpillar College alumni.
