Live & Learn with Your Preschooler - Parent Cooperative Preschools 

In a Parent Cooperative Preschool, parents/caregivers join the teacher in providing a best practice play-based learning environment for children ages 3–5. Children attend preschool for two-and-a-half hour sessions, three days per week, with parents taking turns assisting the teacher. Parents attend evening parenting education sessions with opportunities to reflect and share with other parents.
