STARMS EARLY CHILDHOOD

Starms Early Childhood is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Milwaukee School District school district, located in Milwaukee, WI with about 298 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to Kindergarten. 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 11 teachers, Starms Early Childhood has a student/teacher ratio of about 27:1. 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.

Starms Early Childhood, located at 2616 W. Garfield Ave in Milwaukee, is a specialized educational facility within the Milwaukee Public Schools (MPS) district. As an early childhood center, the school focuses exclusively on the foundational years of development, typically serving students in Pre-K (K3 and K4). The institution is designed to provide a nurturing, structured environment that emphasizes school readiness, social-emotional growth, and early literacy and numeracy skills to prepare children for their transition into elementary education.

As part of the MPS system, Starms Early Childhood aligns with district-wide curriculum standards while fostering a community-centered approach to learning. The school is committed to creating an inclusive atmosphere that supports families and encourages active parent involvement during these formative years. By focusing on developmentally appropriate practices, Starms aims to build a strong academic and social foundation that helps young learners gain the confidence and curiosity necessary for long-term educational success.
