Located in the Wilson section of town, Roger Wolcott Early Childhood Center provides pre-school and kindergarten education. All public-school kindergartners attend Roger Wolcott. Kindergarten classes are half-day classes. The school's approach to education built upon providing literacy and numeracy education as the foundation of child development. Character development and communication are also at the heart of the curriculum. In addition to its in-school programs, Wolcott also provides a Family Resource Center and a tuition-based after- and before-school program.
