On Monday, April 22, the Pleasant Prairie Plan Commission considered and approved Site and Operational Plans for Bear Development on behalf of My Sunshine Real Estate, LLC to build the Goddard School Pleasant Prairie, an early childhood care and education facility.
My Sunshine Real Estate, LLC is proposing to build the 8,251 square foot Goddard School on approximately 1.3 acres of vacant land located at the northwest corner of 91st Avenue and Highway 50. Hours of operation for the Goddard School will be from 7:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m., excluding holidays and weekends.
The facility will have nine classrooms, each having restroom facilities and direct access to one of two outdoor fenced play areas; two office areas; a secure entry vestibule; a kitchen area; staff area; and central restrooms. At full capacity, the school is expected to have 132 children between the ages of six weeks and six years of age.
The Goddard School is a nationally operated school. This will be the second Goddard franchise school in Wisconsin. Each location is co-run by an on-site owner and education director, who work together to implement the national curriculum. The Goddard School Pleasant Prairie expects to employ 30 full- and part-time positions over three staggered shifts. Current plans call for the facility to be completed in January of 2014.
