Parent Involvement

“Parenting is not a technique, it’s a relationship”

How It Works

Parent Involvement preschools are different from other preschools because the parents are directly involved. Parents have the option to participate in a duty day in the classroom, to have a say in the administration of school and to attend meetings with free parenting education and school business discussions. Parent Involvement preschools are a great place for both children and parents to learn new skills, meet new friends, and take the first steps together in a school setting.

Participate in the Classroom

Parents have the opportunity to participate in a duty day at the preschool and assist the teachers in the classroom. Those special days are wonderful opportunities to make memories with your child and their friends and learn from other parents and the teachers.

Attend Meetings & Parent Education

We host parent education sessions by early childhood experts and general and executive meetings to discuss preschool business. Those provide an opportunity to reflect on your parenting skills and build school community.

Help Run the Preschool

Each family is assigned a specific job to assist with the operation of the preschool. Some tasks can be completed on your own time, while others include committee work. Your involvement offers a valuable opportunity to get to know your fellow parents and make a meaningful impact on your child’s school.

The Benefits

You get back everything you put in through the strength of the relationships that you build at the preschool. You will learn so much through your time in the classroom and the parent education seminars. And it’s a pleasure to witness an amazing group of three- and four-year olds flourish, develop, laugh, cry and literally grow up in front of your eyes.

Here are just a few reasons you should consider a parent involvement preschool:

  • You’ll make memories with your child that will last a lifetime
  • Your child will make his/her first buddies — cared and supported not only by teachers but also by other parents
  • You’ll learn valuable parenting skills from our parent education speakers and resources
  • You and your child will make friends within a network of involved and committed families. This sense of community is fostered and strengthened through involvement within the school.

While there is little doubt there is a time commitment involved in belonging to a Parent Involvement Preschool, the rewards both within and beyond the classroom are immediate and long-lasting for children and their parents.
