Albany Preschool is a parent cooperative. A Board of Directors composed of current parents, along with the Executive Director and teachers, administers the school. The Board hires the professional staff to develop and supervise the preschool programs, to be in charge of the daily operation of the school.
We are licensed to have up to 24 children at one time. Due to COVID requirements, children must be in stable bubbles/groups/pods of up to 12 children per pod, and the pods are to social distance from each other as much as possible. We are starting the 2020-21 school year with two pods:
- Pod 1: Half-day program: 8:30 am – 12:30 pm — Monday, Wednesday, Friday
- Pod 2 – Full day program: 8 am – 4:30 pm — Monday through Friday
