Children's Wisconsin School Program provided by the Wauwatosa School District

• Children are taught one-on-one at the bedside or in the hospital school room.
• Hospital school teachers work with children's regular teacher to plan daily lessons.
• Daily routine is planned for each child.
• Children are given a chance to work on school skills and to keep pace with classmates.

The School Program offers children a welcome and comforting routine while children are in the hospital. This program helps them:

• Keep up-to-date with schoolwork.
• Have a familiar routine.
• Keep their mind off illness and being in the hospital.
• Transition back to their school.

• Children in grades 4K through 12 who are hospitalized.
• Children from any school district are welcome.
• There is no cost to parents for the school services.

• Teachers meet students during their second full day of admission. Children’s staff may request school services at any time by placing a school consult through Epic.
• Teachers meet with parents and children to discuss the School Program. Teachers provide teaching materials and may set up a school schedule.
• Parents or legal guardians complete a release of information form. This form will grant the teacher permission to contact the student’s home school. 

• Bring these to the hospital as soon as possible:
  • Chromebook/iPad (with login information)
  • textbooks
  • worksheets
  • any assignments
• Coach your child to take part in the school program.
