The teacher is hired and paid by the parents in the preschool and implements a developmentally appropriate curriculum based on an outline provided by the board of directors. However, parents are encouraged to provide input and share their talents and cultures to supplement the planned curriculum."

There are still a couple of spots available in the three year old's class. And according to my daughter, Lilah, this is the "most funnest" place to be. Even if you aren't 3 or 4 years old, or you don't have little children, there are still many ways you can help show your support for this amazing little preschool. Buy a pie or two at the Fall Foliage Festival (or three, they are really good pies - all home-made!). Purchase raffle tickets in November at sites around town including Market Basket. Create Holiday projects during the Holiday Shopping Tour, and more fun projects and face painting during Spring Into Warner.
Take a look at the Warner Cooperative Preschool website for more information!
