Chapman District Preschools use the Frog Street curriculum to support learning in reading, math, and social-emotional development. In addition, the Heggerty curriculum is used to explicitly teach phonemic awareness and phonics, building a strong foundation for early literacy. Through consistent routines, strong relationships, and intentional instruction, the curriculum supports growth across all developmental domains and helps ensure each child’s success.
