Multi-Age Program

HighScope's educational approach emphasizes "active participatory learning". Active learning means students have direct, hands-on experiences with people, objects, events, and ideas. Children's interests and choices are at the heart of the HighScope program. Children construct their own knowledge through interactions with the world and the people around them. Children take their first steps in the learning process by making choices and following through on their plans and decisions. In active learning settings, adults expand children's thinking with diverse material and nurturing interactions. Teachers, caregivers, and parents offer physical, emotional, and intellectual support.

HighScope has a strong focus on developing and supporting early literacy. Adult initiated times are based on early speaking, listening, reading and writing experiences. Math and science are also a focus of adult initiated times with activities based on classification, seriation, numbers, space and time.
