The Playschool is a cooperative. The benefits of this are lower cost, higher adult-to-child ratio, enhancement of the parent-child relationship and developing and growing in community.
All Playschool Parents contribute a portion of their talents, time, and energy to keep the school functioning effectively. The Board runs the Co-op business, and all the parents participate in decision making, fund-raising, and planning events.
Parent responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
- Assisting the teacher on a rotating basis.
- Preparing and serving snack for your child’s class on a rotating basis.
- Attending and participating in parenting education discussion and meetings.
- Serving on the board, on a committee, or another Co-op job.
