The Rootstown
Cooperative Preschool began in 1981 as an effort to establish an enriching
preschool environment for the children of our community. Parents are a
child’s first and primary teacher. Active
involvement in administering the program, contact with a trained teacher and
a chance to become familiar with appropriate equipment and materials are part
of a learning experience which helps parents in their role as a teacher of a
child. Goals The overall
goals of this program are: *provide a
warm, friendly environment which fosters feelings of belonging, self esteem
and trustworthiness for each child *assist the
