Pied Piper has its roots in cooperative education and has always offered a program built around parents in the classroom. Pied Piper has temporarily modified its coop requirements until under a stronger directive that it is safe to resume. However, the involved parent community and warm play based curriculum are still strong fundamentals Pied Piper relies upon in educating children.
Benefit from a low child-adult ratio and small classes. Pied Piper Preschool traditionally has had classes with 2-3 teachers and less than 24 children. Class sizes have been modified to adhere to the highest standards of safety and health for children.
Gain new ideas for helping your child learn and develop at home and at school. The guiding philosophy of cooperative preschools is that parents are crucial to their children's development and education, not just at home but at school. Classroom participation, child development lectures, and other activities & resources are designed so that parents have the opportunity to learn & grow with their children.
Meet other families with small children and make new friends. Cooperative preschools give parents of small children a chance to interact and form lasting friendships.

The facilities are exceptional! Our large outdoor play yard is specifically designed to house a preschool. This has allowed us to design both interior and exterior spaces with the developmental needs and safety of preschoolers in mind. We have recently upgraded the front exterior of the school, adding a large, welcoming front porch.
Our experienced, professional staff are very knowledgeable about children and care deeply about providing a warm and caring environment for them to play. Our Former Director, Maureen Straw, puts it best: “I feel the goal of early childhood education is to provide positive and sensitive relationships between adults and children. I believe these interactions will allow children to feel secure to play, learn, and experience membership in a community outside our family.”
