Welcome

About Kirkland Co-op Preschool
At Kirkland Co-operative Preschool (KCP) we feel that education is a family process. Children and their parents both benefit from our cooperative learning environment.
Our children learn through creative play, becoming chefs, dancers, scientists, storytellers, woodworkers, musicians, paleontologists, and artists as they combine activity and discovery with imagination.

​Against a backdrop of activity and toys, KCP offers three age-appropriate classes for preschool children and their parents. Parents learn side by side with their children through involvement in their children's education. Monthly parent education meetings cover topics such as self-esteem, sibling relations, learning development, or boundaries, and allow parents to share concerns and ideas.

Classroom Tours
You are welcome to tour the classroom by appointment only. This is for both the safety of the children and consideration of the classroom schedules. To schedule a tour, please email our registrar today.

Current Events

Pantry Packs Food Drive
April 30 - May 11
To participate in KCP's annual food drive, bring to school items from the "Most Wanted" Kid-Friendly Food List. The food drive is an annual KCP tradition in which Groups I, II, & III compete to donate the most food by weight. The winning group will enjoy an ice cream party during class!

Pantry Packs powered by the Lake Washington Schools Foundation provides weekend packs of food for more than 850 LWSD students each week who are identified as being "food insecure." If your child is unfamiliar with this topic, a video clip created by Sesame Street called Growing Hope Against Hunger may be helpful. 

Menchies & Park Play Date
May 9, 12:00pm to 5:00pm
Join your KCP friends at Menchies in Houghton Plaza (935 6th Street South.), where 20% of the proceeds during that time will benefit Kirkland Co-op Preschool. At 3:00pm, join your KCP friends at the Google playground on the Cross Kirkland Corridor path (7th Ave South and 5th Place South, between Google buildings B and D) for play time!
