About the School
The Park City Cooperative Preschool (PCCP) is a not-for-profit school
administered by the parents themselves. The school was established in 1987 by a
group of concerned parents who wanted a quality preschool experience for their
children. Parents who choose the Co-op are committed to personal involvement in
their childs education.
The school provides a
stimulating and varied environment. Children are encouraged to work
independently, in small and large groups, and teacher-directed activities.
Class
meets either Monday and Wednesday or Tuesday and Thursday. There are eighteen
children in each class; nine in the three-year-old program and nine in the
four-year-old program. The children in the four-year-old program also attend
Friday when they concentrate on pre-kindergarten skills, Spanish and special
projects.
There are
two teachers and two co-op parents which make the child to adult ratio 4:1.
Preschool hours are 9:00 a.m. to 12:45 p.m.
