The West Bend School District's 4K program has two nature-based programs that are both operated in partnership with the Kettle Moraine YMCA. Students in these 4K programs spend two days a week at a regular 4K location and two days a week at a nature site. In fall 2025, the program that is currently held at Holy Trinity and Riveredge Nature Center in Newburg will move the nature-based portion of the program to the West Bend School District Outdoor Science Education Center, located across River Road from the high schools building. The other program is held at Trinity Lutheran and Camp Silver Brook in West Bend.
Review the Early Learning Program website to find more information and to enroll in 4K.

All students in grades K-12 (in person and virtual through West Bend Virtual Academy) receive a district-owned Chromebook for student use during the school year. Even if the family has its own laptop, we ask that you get the Chromebook for the student as they will use it while in the school (with in person instruction) and it will be used for testing and assessment.
