Open House on 2/10: Come Meet Our Teachers and Tour the School!

Whether you call Duvall home or simply pass through during your travels, we’d like to extend a warm welcome to come meet our teachers and tour “the little blue school” on Thursday, February 10th for our annual Open House!

In an effort to best accomodate parents’ busy schedules, there will be 2 sessions to choose from:

10am to 12pm OR 6pm to 7:30pm

We’re located at 26512 NE Stella Street in Duvall, just a block off of Main Street, next to the Duvall Firehouse. Feel free to bring your prospective students along; while you meet with our teachers, they’re free to explore our art, sensory and dramatic play areas.

If you have any questions or need more information, you can e-mail or call us at (425) 533-6617. You can also follow our updates by subscribing to our blog, friending us on Facebook or following us on Twitter.

Testimonials and Pictures from Miss Christine’s Pre-K Class

Now that all the holiday/new year hustle and bustle has died down, we thought we’d add some updates from this past fall.

Below are a few testimonials we’ve received from current DCP parents…

From Elaine K.

My daughter Katie has grown into a confident young leaner based on the support and nurturing she has received from the amazing teachers and parents at DCP. This Co-op is a jewel in our community and I’m proud to be a part of its success!!

Thank you for all that you do for our kids!!

From Eriko L.

When we got school this afternoon, my son, Toshiki, told me about how Australia is having alot of flooding. We watched the news on CNN during lunch before heading to school and he remembered it. I told him to ask Julie about it, as she is from Australia. I thought she could tell him about what she knows.

However, Toshiki was too shy to go to her, and went to the sensory table to play with his classmates instead. Since I myself was curious to talk to her about flooding, I went to Julie and she kindly shared information with me. I also told her that my son knew about the flooding and he was too shy to talk to her.

When I was leaving the school building, I saw that Julie was going to my son to talk with him. I was very moved to see Julie’s action trying to engage with him. I believe Toshiki was very happy to talk to her.

I think this is one of the many stories that makes our school so special and a great place for our children. Our kids can have close relationships with other parents through playing, talking and learning with them, and they will know that there are many people in the world who care and pay attention to them other than their own teachers and parents, which is an absolutely positive experience for children.

Thank you, Julie, and I am so glad my son can mingle with so many great parents!

From Chrissy G.

My husband and I are absolutely thrilled with our experience at the Duvall Cooperative Preschool. The “Blue School” is a little hidden treasure within the Duvall community. Miss Christine has a gift for making each child feel welcome, capable, and important. Parents are able to watch their child blossom into active learners. I would give the Duvall Cooperative Preschool my highest recommendation for kindergarten preparation.

DCP is offering a new class this class fall. The Multi-Age, family style class is offered on Friday mornings from 9:30-11:30 a.m. and is open to children birth to age 4. Families with siblings under the age of 4 are welcome to attend with their parent as well as a single child with their parent.

The class will have a time of exploration in the school’s centers like art, sensory, blocks, dramatic play, and reading/writing nook with curriculum based on weekly themes, as well as group circle time and large motor play. The mix of older students with younger students will help build positive social skills for the older children as well as examples of higher development for the younger children. Parents receive their Lake Washington Technical College parent education piece monthly in class so they have a chance to nurture and grow their own parenting skills and meet other parents in their community.
