Families enrolled at the parent participation tuition level will work as a parent volunteer in the classroom as a co-oper. A limited number of volunteer positions are available each year for non-classroom roles. Contact admin@lcycpreschool.org if you’re interested in a non-classroom role. All volunteer positions require a minimum commitment of 3-4 hours monthly.
If you would like to switch to NON-participation, please contact us as soon as possible.
Classroom co-opers help the teacher and assistant with hands-on activities in the classroom. You will typically be the third adult in the classroom, except on occasion where there may only be two adults if a teacher is out. Co-oping duties include engaging with the students throughout the day with classroom activities and outdoor play; as well as helping students wash their hands, assisting with transition times; and prepping and cleaning items in the classroom (sweeping, cleaning tables, washing items, etc.).
Co-opers are scheduled approximately once per month for a 3.5 hour commitment (9am-12:30pm), for a maximum of ten times per year (September-June), per student enrolled. Missed co-op shifts with no notice are subject to a missed co-op fee of $50, and the shift must be rescheduled. Co-opers must arrive on time at 9am; arrival after 9:10am will incur a $15 late fee charge.
All co-oping adults must complete all of the requirements prior to co-oping. If you are a returning co-oper with completed forms already on file from the previous school year, you only need to attend the in-person training in September. We cannot schedule you to co-op until your requirements are completed and you will be invoiced the tuition difference for each month until you can be scheduled to co-op. All co-op forms are due in August in order to be placed on the co-op schedule for September. Mandatory co-op training for all co-oping adults (new and returning) is held the first week of school in September.
