La Casita Preschool

La Casita Preschool La Casita is a parent cooperative preschool in Santa Fe, NM. We offer a rich play-based curriculum

La Casita began as an idea shared between two mothers in a grocery store parking lot. The two were looking for quality early childhood programs for their own children. Over 40 years later, La Casita is still serving Santa Fe, NM as a parent cooperative preschool. We are fully accredited by the NAEYC, and we hold a 5 star rating from our state licensing department. We offer a play based approach to education inspired by the Reggio Emilia Approach. http://www.reggiochildren.it/identita/reggio-emilia-approach/?lang=en Furthermore, we craft our curriculum around children's interests. We believe in the powerful image and potential of every child and their family. La Casita follows an emergent curriculum which changes based on our conversations with students about experiences, interests, and life events happening in our community. Children, teachers, and parents are seen as co-learners and collaborators in education. Underlying our curriculum, we work with each child to help them with the important social and emotional work of early childhood: learning to express themselves, develop empathy, make friends, and share ideas. In the cooperative setting, parents are active participants in the classroom every day. They participate in school upkeep, fundraising, and assist to run the school as members of our board of directors.
