Welcome to the Rock Spring Cooperative Preschool, a parent-run school, with a teacher-led curriculum, and children-led play.
Applications are no longer being accepted for the 2010-2011 school year. We have currently filled all classes and have extensive waiting lists for each. If you are currently on a waitlist and an appropriate opening becomes available for your child, we will contact you immediately.
About Rock Spring Cooperative Preschool
Founded in 1943 by a group of caring and inventive mothers, Rock Spring is the oldest cooperative preschool in Arlington. We offer age-specific classes for one- to five-year-olds, as well as an Extended Day Program and Summer Camp.
Our learning-through-play philosophy provides a stimulating environment for development and growth with an emphasis on nurturing each child’s individuality, self-esteem, and joy in learning. We believe the preschool child’s intellectual, social, and emotional growth is best fostered through active play guided by qualified teachers.
As a member of our cooperative preschool, parents have an unparalleled opportunity to observe, support, and guide their children’s growth. Parents also share the day-to-day responsibilities of running and managing the school.
