Something new this year from West Seattle’s cooperative preschools: A “multi-age” co-op class. We found out about it while talking recently with Judy Hall, who oversees the South Seattle College Cooperative Preschools program that has operated for years at multiple locations around this area. As explained on the flyer:

Have you ever been curious about cooperative preschool but couldn’t quite make it fit your schedule? Do you have more than one preschool-age child? Could you use a little parent coaching to smooth out the rough spots in your parenting journey? Would you benefit from finding a strong support system of parents like you?

If so, you can contact Judy to find out about possibly being part of the new program, which will meet Fridays at the Alki Co-op Preschool site. She’s at jhall@southseattle.edu and 206-938-2278.

P.S. Again this fall, the Cooperative Preschools will be the beneficiary of the West Seattle Monster Dash. It’s set for Saturday, October 24th, at Lincoln Park, 5K at 9 am and kids’ dash at 10 am, costumes encouraged (with a contest at 10:30) – you can register by going here.
