Applying to Cottage
Cottage Co-op offers more than a successful pre-school program. The school focuses on the "whole child" where social, emotional, physical and intellectual development are equally celebrated. Our approach emphasizes the role of the parent in the child's development and recognizes we — the children, the parents, the teachers, and the community — all grow through the experiences we share.
Cottage's admissions process goes beyond filling the classes. It strives to give families an understanding of our approach and the benefits of working in a cooperative environment. Admissions starts with parents getting to know Cottage, our philosophy, our approach and our program. It is also about getting to know the opportunities and responsibilities associated with being a part of the Cottage Community.
Explore The Admissions Process
The Cottage admission process gives families time to explore Cottage's philosophy and programs. Prospective families are given the opportunity to experience Cottage first hand and it affords us the chance to get to know each family and student. For more information about admissions, please review our FAQ page and refer to more details on "what makes a good fit?" and "how do we apply?".
