North Seattle College

Wedgwood Cooperative Preschool is part of the North Seattle College system of cooperative preschools. Parents enroll through NSC for parent education that happens on site at our preschool.

Started over 50 years ago, the NSC Cooperative Preschool Program offers a warm and gentle introduction to school and community life for young children and their families. Adults and children learn together, grow together, and actively build a community together. NSC’s Cooperative Preschools provide parent and early education for families with children from infancy to Pre-K.

Schools are located in North Seattle and differ from traditional preschools in that they are run by parents who work in association with the class teacher and the North Seattle College program.

Parent Advisory Council

The Parent Advisory Council (PAC) is composed of parents representing each co-op class in the Parent Education Program at North Seattle College as well as a faculty representative from the Parent Education Program, Health and Human Services Division. 

PAC meets on a monthly basis and its major objectives are: 

• To promote quality education for parents and their young children. 
• To offer parent information and opinions for decision making by the Parent Education Program, Health and Human Services Division, North Seattle College. 
• To unify the co-ops throughout the system by providing a communication network for voicing needs and sharing ideas. 
• To provide year-to-year continuity and a sense of history for a program made up of many diverse elements. 
• To make co-ops available to all socioeconomic groups.
