Welcome to East Ithaca Preschool

Founded in 1924, East Ithaca Preschool is Ithaca's oldest cooperative preschool. We are proud of our school; the educational opportunities it provides our children, and the community it brings our twenty-some families. Our professional teacher, Mrs. Foote, has an unsurpassed level of energy and dedication to children and their education. When this enthusiasm is combined with the talents and experiences of our member families, the educational experience is not only of the highest level but most memorable.

NOW ENROLLING FOR FALL 2011

EIP was established with the belief that it is crucial for young children to begin their educational lives by developing their social skills as well as participating in gently structured group and free play activities.  EIP provides an environment that encourages and stimulates children to explore, imagine, create, communicate, and cooperate.  Our teacher, Mrs. Foote, is a warm, friendly, and creative professional with over 20 years of teaching experience.

We welcome children ages 2.5 to 5 years old.  Students may attend either Monday through Friday (5 days/week),  MWF (3 days/week), or TTh (2 days/week).  Children under 3 may only attend on Tuesday and Thursdays (2 days/week).

If you would like to meet the teacher and see the school, you are welcome to attend the following activities this summer:

Summer play dates at the East Ithaca Preschool Playground – beginning Thursday July 7, 2011, our teacher, Mrs. Foote, will host open play dates on the school play ground from 10 to 11:30 am.  Play dates will occur every Thursday morning throughout the summer.  We welcome all prospective, new, and returning families to join us, meet the teacher, view the school, meet some of the enrolled students, and have a great time!  In case of inclement weather, the play date will be cancelled. 

Open House – Our school will host an Open House on Saturday August 6, 2011 from 10 am to noon.  You are welcome to bring your children and play in the school room, meet the teacher, meet other prospective students, and learn more about our wonderful school.
