Best Co-op preschool in Portland-Great new location in the Southwest!
by otismeow
When I moved to Portland 3 years ago, I researched all the Cooperative Pre-schools. This one can't be beat for so many reasons! Fantastic teachers! Great outdoor space! Great hours (9-1)! Hugely supportive families and teachers! When I found this one, they were moving to a new location in the Southwest right beside Pendleton Park! I was on the waitlist for 6 months and finally got in when my daughter was 2 years old. They have a 1 year old class, a two year old class, and a 3-5 preschool class. This will be our 3rd year and my daughter couldn't be happier! She couldn't wait for school to start this year! I always look forward to my shift day!
- Pros: Wonderful new location (6053 SW 55th Drive Portland, OR 97221)
- Cons: My daughter never wants to leave!

THE best preschool in all of Portland
by jsvobo
I have had my children at SWPCC for four years and have commuted from NE Portland the entire time. The teachers, the community, everything is more than I could have ever asked for in a preschool for my children. If you are looking for a preschool with an amazing community and great teachers, this is the place for you.
- Pros: Great, nurturing teachers, an amazing outdoor space, a real community to raise your kids in.
- Cons: None!

Fantastic preschool environment
by ELgroth
This is a great cooperative preschool. Not only do I get to see my son in his learning environment, I've learned a lot of skills that have improved my parenting at home. And, we have all made good friends here. The members and teachers are very committed to a high-quality learning environment for the kids. On my shift days, I feel like my time contribution is valued and put to good use and I really enjoy playing with the kids. It's much less stressful than I thought it would be (the teacher is in charge!).
- Pros: great teachers, curriculum and members
- Cons: it takes a lot of parent volunteer work to run a good preschool
