Narrative
Infant & Toddler
The Infant and Toddler program serves children ages one month (1) to two years, eight months (2.9). We offer a comprehensive learning experience emphasizing growth and development. The Infant and Toddler program establishes an early learning fundamental that is so critical to a child’s early development and well-being.
Preschool
The Preschool places a focus on school readiness. It serves children ages two years, nine months (2.9) to five years (5). Children are exposed to a variety of activities. Particular emphasis is placed on literacy development. The Cooper Preschool provides a comprehensive learning experience through developing social, emotional, and cognitive skills, through literacy, math, science, art, writing, music and gross and fine motor skills.
After School
After School serves children ages five (5) to twelve (12). It provides children a safe and supervised environment during the After School hours. Children in Cooper’s After School program engage in activities that promote confidence, develop self-esteem and foster an excitement of learning. Children engage in tutoring and mentoring programs with students and Science Explorers. We have an elementary science curriculum developed specifically for Cooper and lead by Graduate students.
Camp Unity
As part of our mission to establish an excitement for learning, Cooper offers a unique approach to summer education. For eight weeks, Cooper offers Camp Unity, for children ages five (5) to twelve (12). Children are exposed to education in a nontraditional setting. We incorporate dance, literacy, science and environmental study into camp activities. Children can develop leadership skills, confidence and self-reliance.
In addition, Cooper implements Peaceable Camps, a program that teaches how to peaceably solve differences through conflict resolution, communication and team building skills.
