On Thursday, January 7, from 5:30 - 8:00 pm, Shoreline Community College's Parent Education Program is parntering with ParentMap to sponsor a Preschool Preview Night, in the PUB Main Dining Room on campus, at 16101 Greenwood Avenue North, just west of Aurora.
Faculty and staff from approximately 30 preschools from across Seattle, Shoreline, north King County and south Snohomish County will share information about their preschools from general information about the centers to curriculum. Parents will have the opportunity to talk one-on-one with preschool teachers and learn about the general environment of the preschool, curriculum, learning activities and materials, one-on-one and small group opportunities for children to work and play with instructors, and reading time and play time. They will also have the chance to talk to other parents about their children’s experiences at different schools.
Parents will go home with materials and a much better sense of what preschool might be best for their child or children.
A few of the preschools participating, in addition to the parent cooperative preschools affiliated with Shoreline Community College, are Capitol Hill Cooperative Preschool; Hearing, Speech and Deafness Center; Pacific Northwest Montessori Association, Kinder Kampus Preschool and Child Care and The Highlands School.
As a co-sponsor of the Preschool Preview Night, Shoreline Community College’s Parent Education Program will provide information about the seven parent cooperative preschools (located in Shoreline, Lake Forest Park, Bothell, Woodinville, and Kirkland) that are affiliated with the college. The college provides parent instructors for all the preschools, which offer a developmentally appropriate, play-centered curriculum for children birth through five years old. Parents whose children are enrolled in the preschools participate in the preschools on a weekly basis and earn college credit for the parent education that they receive.
