PRESCHOOL –
Welcome to the Chelsea Childrens Cooperative Preschool where both the child and the parent participate. You are a shareholder in the school; an equal owner with all the other parents enrolled for the coming school year and because of this play an important role in the success of the Co-op.
The cooperative experience will be different for each of us as we are different from one another. Our main objective though is universal our children. The goal for our preschool is to give your child a head start for the future and to help them in developing skills needed for their continuing education.

Learning is a natural and ongoing phenomenon which emerges as we interact with and respond to our environment. As young children play they develop strategies and form relationships that enable them to create a world that makes sense.
At Chelsea Childrens Cooperative Preschool we believe it is our responsibility to provide multifaceted opportunities for preschoolers to explore experiment and grow in a safe nurturing and age appropriate arena. Our program is committed to helping individual children:
- Develop and maintain a positive self-image
- Stimulate creativity and a personal interest and joy in learning and discovery
- Work toward self-sufficiency and independence
- Develop problem solving skills
- Cultivate cooperative social skills with adults and peers in large and small group situations
- Improve their coordination balance rhythm strength endurance and body awareness as it relates to health safety and fitness issues
- Exercise self control
- Accept and respect others and their opinions
- Successfully communicate their thoughts feelings and ideas through language art music dance etc.
- Become proficient and competent elementary school students from early exposure to educationally sound activities that introduce and subtly teach pre-academic competencies necessary for later school success in math science social studies and reading
- Have fun and enjoy school
Research based studies maintain that parents are the first and ultimately the best and most influential teachers. To this end we are dedicated to providing services to our community within the context of the family. Parents are provided opportunities and are encouraged to assist in many aspects of school development and operation. Establishing a genuine partnership between children parents and teachers in an educational setting benefits everyone.
Chelsea Childrens Cooperative Preschools philosophy curriculum and classroom practices are based on findings from professional resources and research in the field of early childhood development and education. We continually evaluate and revise our practices to reflect what is currently known about children.
Valuing the family as a unit as well as the individuality and worth of each of its members is our philosophy and practical approach to preschool education.
