Our School

The Central Whidbey Co-op Preschool is a non-profit program affiliated with Skagit Valley College Family Life Education Department. Parents help to manage the co-op and participate in the classroom at least two days a month. Children develop skills that prepare them for school, and parents learn to be more effective teachers of their own children. Children aged 3-5 attend two mornings or afternoons per week; 4-5 year olds also attend a pre-K class one morning per week.

Benefits of Co-op Preschool

For Children:

  • Developmentally appropriate activities designed to meet children's needs for social, emotional, cognitive, physical, and creative growth.
  • Interaction with children of similar ages, which facilitates learning and the development of social skills.
  • Clearly defined, comfortable play and learning areas with a variety of equipment, learning games, songs, stories, and art activities.
  • Opportunities to explore the Coupeville community through field trips to local areas like the fire station, veterinarian's office, pumpkin patch, and beach.
  • A safe, nurturing learning environment with caring, accepting adults (a professional teacher and three parents for each day of class).
  • The chance to build self-confidence and a positive self image.

For parents:

  • Participation in their children's education.
  • Ways to broaden their knowledge of child development through written materials, monthly parent education meetings, and discussion groups.
  • Opportunities to work with a parent educator to learn about differing parenting styles, community supports, and tips for raising a healthy child.
  • The experience of interacting with and observing children in a preschool setting.
  • Opportunities to make friends and get support from other families in the Co-op
  • Active leadership roles as managers of the Co-op by participating on the Board or on one of the preschool committees.
