About

When your children play at Chapel Hill Cooperative Preschool, they use the natural setting and unique open room concept to learn about themselves, discover how to interact with the world and their peers, and create and use new skills. They benefit from the years of experience that CHCP teachers have to enrich their development and growth. Your child plays. We support your children in their choices. Your child breathes life into Chapel Hill Cooperative Preschool. Your child played today. Your child moved, climbed, danced, sang. Your child read, drew, put together a puzzle, and sat on a teacher's lap. Your child hugged their friends, waved goodbyes, and said hellos. Your child laughed, you child chose what he or she wanted to do with teacher’s guidance. The staff at Chapel Hill Cooperative Preschool put a great deal of emphasis on the positive “everyday interactions” that your child has- being kind to themselves and their peers; learning from, teaching, and interacting with teachers, volunteers, and parents; and being cooperative and loving with families. Helping children to be successful here each day forms a solid foundation that will enable them to explore and participate in the worlds outside and beyond school. Chapel Hill Cooperative Preschool is ready for your children and ready to support your child in his or her chosen daily activities. The most important activity is play. Play is the child's “work.” From outside time to dot time to afternoon playgroups, play is often the first way children: figure out social relationships learn how to take responsibility for their actions invite in the world of reading and writing experiment with how their body moves in space cope with indescribable emotions The curriculum CHCP has adopted, The Creative Curriculum, categorizes four ways looking at your child's development- Social/Emotional, Physical, Cognitive, and Language Development. While these areas are fluid and continually overlap, you can take a look at your child's “day of play” from each development perspective.

We’ve been part of the CHCP community for four years and love it. With our daughter, it was her first time in a group setting, and the teachers did an amazing job transitioning her.
