Join Us at Crown Hill Cooperative Preschool’s Open House on Monday, February 1st!

The Crown Hill Cooperative Preschool is hosting an Open House for families with children 1 to 3 years old on Monday, February 1st. Teacher Janice Jacobson will be on hand to lead activities, answer questions, and tour families around our classroom. It’s also a great chance to meet current co-op families and learn about their experiences, too.

Monday, February 1st, from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM Our Redeemer’s Lutheran Church
2400 NW 85th Street
Seattle, WA 98117

Teacher Janice Jacobson has been teaching in the NSC Co-Op Program since 1991. She loves teaching toddlers and Pre-3s because,“everything is new and intriguing to these little people.” Teacher Janice finds the Co-Op environment to be very supportive of children and their families.

Why We Love Cooperative Preschool

Preschool is a time for your child to explore, engage and encounter. Preschool allows children to be exposed to new friends, new challenges, new ideas. From painting to pretending, taking turns to tower building, each child will have the opportunity to explore new experiences as their minds make new connections about the world around them. Co-Op parents are automatically enrolled as students in the North Seattle College Parent Education Program and receive three college credits each quarter while learning from experienced child development professionals.

What is Co-op?

A Cooperative Preschool, or Co-op, provides quality, early childhood education and parent support for families with children from infancy to Pre-Kindergarten. Co-ops offer a community of support and education for children and their families. They differ from traditional preschools in that they’re lead by an experienced preschool teacher in conjunction with parents, and in partnership with certified Parent Educators from North Seattle College.

In our Co-Op system, teachers plan and implement a developmentally appropriate curriculum. Parents assist in the classroom and perform administrative duties. Parent educators advise teachers and help parents build on their parenting skills. Crown Hill & Northwest Co-op Preschool offers engaging early learning opportunities, accredited parent education, and family support for families in and around Ballard.
