About Our Classes
Each age level has the choice between AM or PM classes. At the 4 year old level, there is an additional, optional Enrichment Program on Thursday afternoons. As a Co-op preschool, parents act as volunteers in the classroom providing additional support, but also engagement in your child's preschool experience. There is the option to be a Non Co-op family for a one time, non-refundable fee that covers the cost of a substitute for your slots. Please speak to the membership chair with any questions about our class offerings. Tuition assistance options are available for all of our programs.
