Why choose our Co-op Preschool for your child?

Families at Pine Lake Co-op offer several compelling reasons why they selected our school as the ideal setting for their children's preschool journey:

  • Play-based education philosophy

  • Amazing, experienced, and dedicated teachers

  • Affordable tuition with scholarships available

  • 5-to-1 or lower adult to child ratio

  • Our large outdoor playground

  • Access to parenting experts and monthly parent education opportunities

  • A close-knit community of parents and families

Our cooperative preschool is a non-profit organization and a part of the Bellevue College Parent Education program. We specialize in play-based early learning, where children learn, problem-solve, develop social skills, and explore their world through play.

Research shows, and we agree: a play-based program is truly the most “academic” choice a parent can make.

Family involvement in education is one of the most powerful predictors of healthy development and high student achievement. At Pine Lake Co-op, parents are involved with every aspect of their children’s education, from working in the classroom to helping run the preschool. Also, as part of our program through Bellevue College, experts in the field of early childhood development offer parents vital tools for raising young kids.
