High/Scope refers to an educational curriculum developed by the High/Scope Educational Research Foundation in Ypsilanti, Michigan. The preschool curriculum is a developmentally appropriate approach that stresses a child-centered, active learning classroom. The approach allows for the inclusion of children with disabilities because of its structure and commitment to allow children to develop at their own pace.
