FAQ
-
Why choose a cooperative preschool?Taking part in a cooperative preschool allows you to be directly involved with your child’s early education. Parents assist the teachers in the classroom and manage the tasks necessary to operate a successful school. It encourages families to share their interests and talents in the classroom, on a Board of Directors, or on committees. These direct efforts and involvement make the cooperative a unique educational opportunity. The children foster a love for learning as they are nurtured with acceptance and kindness by teachers and the cooperative family community. Parent education is stressed in cooperative preschools so that both children and parents receive the best education possible to assist and advocate for their future in learning. Source: VCPC
