About

The Twin Cities Community Pre-School (TCCP) is a play-based, parent participatory pre-school in Corte Madera. We provide our students an indoor and outdoor learning experience that encourages fun and exploration. We create a playful environment where children can explore new ideas, interact and problem solve with peers, learn communication skills and develop creativity. At TCCP, each student is provided opportunities to try new challenges in a safe, supportive environment. Founded in 1946 by a group of mother's who wanted an alternative to traditional childhood education methods, TCCP continues to offer its students and community a unique pre-school experience benefiting both the child and parent.

The TCCP morning program is a parent participatory pre-school that operates from 9 a..m. - 2 p.m., Monday - Friday. It includes 30 students with ages ranging from 2 years 9 months old to 5 years old. TCCP also offers an after care program Stay and Play to students and the community.

Preschool School Year:
Each child attends FOUR mornings per week with an assigned day off (e.g. Thursdays off). Because of the staggered four-days per week schedule, only 24 children are in attendance on any given morning. Parents take turns teaching an assigned day each week (e.g. Wednesdays) under the guidance of our Director. Six parent-teachers are scheduled to work each day. The parent-teacher/child ratio is always 4/1 (plus the Director).

Sample Schedule:
Monday: child attends
Tuesday: child attends
Wednesday: parent/child attends
Thursday: child's day off
Friday: child attends
