DESCRIPTION:Wacousta Cooperative Preschool Enrollment Open House\n\n02/25/26 05:30 PM EST\n - 02/25/26 07:00 PM EST\Description:\nWacousta Preschool is Growing! Wacousta Cooperative Preschool (WCP) invites the community to an Enrollment Open House to celebrate our historic move to the Wacousta Community Center (the former Wacousta Elementary building). This transition allows us to serve more families in the Wacousta, Grand Ledge and DeWitt areas by significantly increasing our preschool capacity and launching our brand-new Toddler Program.\n\nExperience the Cooperative Difference As a family-focused nonprofit cooperative, WCP is more than just a school—it is a community where parents are partners in the classroom. Our Reggio Emilia-inspired philosophy focuses on child-led inquiry where children are encouraged to be curious, empathetic, and collaborative. Whether you are a current WCP family or looking for your child’s first school home, join us to see how we are building a vibrant community hub for our smallest neighbors.\n\nWhat’s New for 2026-2027?\n\n\n	\n	Expanded Preschool Capacity: Our new facility allows us to welcome more children into our half-day and full-day tuition-based preschool programs. Over 30 additional seats!\n	\n	\n	NEW Toddler Program: We are thrilled to announce the addition of a dedicated Toddler Class for children ages 12–30 months! This program offers a safe, nurturing environment where our youngest learners can explore and grow.\n	\n	\n	GSRP Availability: We continue to offer a state-funded Great Start Readiness Program (GSRP) classroom for qualifying 4-year-olds. Applications can be done through Eaton RESA.\n	\n\n\Details:\nWhat to Expect:\n\n\n	\n	Facility Tours: Explore our new, larger classrooms at the Wacousta Cooperative Center.\n	\n	\n	Meet the Team: Talk with our experienced teaching staff and Board members about the "WCP Way".\n	\n	\n	New Program Launch: Get details on our first-ever Toddler Class, specifically designed for children ages 12–30 months.\n	\n	\n	Preschool Options: Learn about our flexible Half-Day and Full-Day tuition-based programs for 3-to-5-year-olds.\n	\n	\n	GSRP Information: Information will be available regarding our state-funded Great Start Readiness Program (GSRP) for qualifying 4-year-olds.\n	\n\n\nRegistration & Enrollment: Enrollment for the 2026-2027 school year will open during this event.
