FORREST STREET EARLY LEARNING CENTER

Forrest Street Early Learning Center is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Black River Falls School District school district, located in Black River Falls, WI with about 341 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 1st Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 25 teachers, Forrest Street Early Learning Center has a student/teacher ratio of about 13:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Forrest Street Early Learning Center, located in Black River Falls, Wisconsin, serves as the primary educational hub for the district’s youngest learners. Operated as part of the School District of Black River Falls, the center is specifically designed to foster early childhood development, focusing on preparing children for their transition into elementary school through structured, play-based, and developmentally appropriate curriculum.

The center emphasizes creating a supportive and engaging environment where early literacy, social-emotional skills, and foundational learning are prioritized. By providing specialized early education programs, Forrest Street Early Learning Center aims to lay the groundwork for long-term academic success while partnering with families to support the unique needs of children in the Black River Falls community.
