Now to preschool we do swarm
Make my clothes, old, soft and warm
Soft old pants and an old sweater
So I can get dirty - what could be better?
Comfy old sneakers, don't dress me pretty
So I can play, explore and get dirty.
All my clothes will be easier to claim
If in each thing you put my name!
Preschool is here, time to laugh, jump and run
Please won't you dress me to join in the fun?

Have you ever heard someone remark about an early childhood program...even ours, perhaps, "all the children do is play."?  At good early childhood programs there is a lot of play and there should be!  Years of research on children's learning and development document the many benefits of play for children's intellectual, social, emotional, physical and language development.  Children at play are actively involved in creating themes, exploring and establishing environments, solving problems, and developing shared understandings.

 

Our program focuses on the following:

  • School readiness
  • Literacy preparation
  • Love of learning
  • Parent participation
 
Welcome to the home of Darcy Read Memorial Cooperative Preschool!  We hope you find this site informational for you and your preschooler!  The cooperative preschool experience is one of the best gifts you can give your child (and yourself).  We hope you will consider joining us and actively participating in the education of your child.  These years go by so quickly...wouldn't you like to be there to share in this wondrous time of your child's life?
