SUPPLY FEE: $50/year for 1 day a week;  $100/year for 2 days a week

CLASS MAXIMUM:  6

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: Our toddler nursery is available throughout the day to care for our little ones who are on the move.  Children who are too young for Preschool (approximately Birth - 3 years old) will be cared for in the toddler nursery by co-op moms. This will not be a formal teaching environment, but is offered to assist those families who have older students enrolled at Anchor and for our tutors while they are teaching. Moms of babies who are not yet walking are welcome to use the nursery for changing, nursing, etc., but infants will need to remain in their mother's care during the day. This is not a drop-off care environment. We are providing a safe place for you and your child during your co-op day. 

TUITION: $150/year for one day; $300/year for both days

CLASS MAXIMUM: 8

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: Our Preschool program is a time of structured, cooperative learning for our little ones ages 3 - 4 years old. (Consideration will be given to older 2s who are able to participate in semi-structured activities.) Preschool teachers work hard to plan fun, age-appropriate learning activities.  Children will practice letter and number concepts, participate in calendar and storytime, express themselves creatively through arts & crafts, music, and indoor & outdoor playtime, and learn to interact cooperatively with others in a caring environment.

TUITION: $250/year for one day; $500/year for both days

CLASS MAXIMUM: 10

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION:  This class is geared towards older 4s & 5s who are showing reading-readiness skills and are able to work somewhat independently for short periods of time.  Our Pre-K4/Kindergarten class is designed to enhance the academic, social, and creative needs of our oldest littles and the activities they are doing at home with their family. Learning will occur through the use of art projects, storytime, music, creative indoor & outdoor play, and structured teaching time.  The curriculum will vary from year to year.
