About the Program:
The Parent Education and Cop-op School Readiness Program is based on a developmental model. Our program adheres closely to California State Preschool Learning Foundations and Curriculum Framework and uses these benchmarks to create an engaging, developmentally appropriate curriculum tailored to the needs of each class and student. Teachers work with parents to developmentally prepare children to transition to Pre-Kindergarten (TK) or Kindergarten. This is done through hands-on activities, parent and child interaction, and participation in school events, and parent meetings. Creative expression, pre-reading, pre-math, science, music, and the child’s world and interests, will be some of the major areas we work on.
