<h1>Working together for our children's education</h1>
<p style="font-size: 1.25rem;">The Ypsilanti Cooperative Preschool (YCP) has been offering a quality preschool program that involves family since 1946. Each student recieves a montessori inspired environment that balances play and structured time and supports individual growth and development.</p>
<h2>What is a Cooperative Preschool?</h2>
<p>It means that we are a non-profit organization that is administered and maintained by the parents of current students. Parents assist our professional teacher, Ms. Mieke, in the classroom on a rotating basis and participate in the educational program of all the children. Parents, children, and teacher all learn together.</p>
<p>Parents are required to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Assist in the classroom about 1-2 times a month and bring a snack on their assist day.</li>
<li>Attend two cleaning bees or choose an opt-out option.</li>
<li>Participate in the fall and spring fundraiser.</li>
<li>Take on one year-long school job. Attend one mandatory membership meeting per semester.</li>
</ul>
