My children attended the school for 4+ years. We were fortunate enough to be able to skip the…read morewaitlist as we were moving from another Nobel Learning Community school in another state. My children had experience with 3 main teachers, two of whom were fantastic. The classrooms are set up with one main teacher who has to have Montessori certification and one assistant teacher who does not have to be certified in Montessori education. There is one classroom for toddlers (ages 2-3) and 6 other classrooms (ages 3-6/kindergarten). The upper classes have about 22 students/teacher+ assistant. I assume that each school is as good as the staff/teachers who work there. Children can start as young as 2 years old in room 1. The main teacher in room 1 Ms Rose was very patient, loving, and had everything under control. Other teacher in room 6, Ms Kat, was the best teacher I've ever met. She made sure that children were learning, came up with various aids/behavioral strategies when children were struggling and she is very dedicated to teaching. She was always busy teaching the children, working with them, and making sure they were learning. My other child who moved up from room one to another classroom had a less than desirable experience as he did not learn much in his upper class and we ended up transferring him (after addressing our concerns first with that teacher and then the principal) to room 6 and the amazing Ms Kat who brought him up to speed in less than 10 months! The principal, Ms Lila is a very lovely lady, knows everyone by name, and runs the school well. Her door is always open and she is always available to listen to concerns and answer questions as needed. The school organizes a few events during the year and it feels like the staff is putting a lot of effort into providing the children with nice learning environment. Overall, I'd recommend the school but make sure you are on top of what your child is learning.

We absolutely love this school for so many reasons. Our son and daughter both went here and I feel…read morelike they are a huge advantage because of it. The Principal, Miss Jamie is so warm, kind, smart, and trustworthy-- you literally could not find a better person for this role. She is always coming up with fun ideas for the kids, parents, and her staff and she's a true leader. I think all of the teachers here are really great but especially my son's teachers Miss Emily and Miss Cari. Miss Emily has been at this school for (i can't remember exactly) but 15-20 years. She is totally professional and the BEST teacher. We feel so lucky to have her. Miss Cari was her assistant and I think she is in school to become an official teacher and we also think the world of her. She had cute inside jokes with our son and was always bringing a smile to his face. The school is clean, safe, organized and I always felt comfortable having our kids here. We will miss this school!

The new owner/director, Hilary, is such a great communicator and provides so many different programs (soccer, art, spanish, music, dance, swimming classes, chess) to engage and grow the kids. The classes are small and all the teachers are fantastic! They are building such great building blocks and a love for learning/exploring the world! I whole heartedly recommend this school!

Mrs. Sue and Miss Megan made the transition for Jacklynn such a positive experience! She started in the summer program, and now we are enrolled currently in their 2021-2022 school year. I couldn't ask for a better environment for the foundation of my daughter's school years and learning. The Christian environment is important to our family, and I love that is a main focus at the school too. There are plenty of other preschools to choose from in Meridian and closer to where we live... but I will gladly make the drive to Eagle Christian preschool knowing my daughter is thriving and in such good care!!

So sad we moved but would highly recommend this place to any mom. Also, she holds a music class on Thursdays that someone from the Boise Philharmonic Orchestra teaches. 5 star rating all around.

This is a small school, filled with so much love and dedication. Is is very different from other classes and schools. You will feel like a family with the other families and the staff. The two teachers, Jessica and Joslyn are incredible. So good with the kids, kind, patient and allowing the kids to learn things that interest them. My daughter adored them. The director is also very present, hopping in and out frequently. There are a few important things to know about The Cooperative. This place is NOT a good fit for everyone. It truly is cooperative. Parents are in the classroom as volunteers. For the T/Th class it's about once a month. For MWF, it will be closer to twice a month. You also need to be on a committee. This could mean, being on maintenance and shampooing the carpets at the end of the year. Or being on the Silent Auction committee and helping plan the big fundraiser. You also sit in a circle at the end of class and do a goodbye so that takes about 10-15 minutes every class too. If you are looking for a "drop off and leave" kind of preschool...this is not it. Ultimately this was the main reason why we couldn't continue with our second year here. With a younger kid (who can NOT come in during your parent helper time) and two working parents...it just didn't work. The second thing you need to know is that this is Play Based. Your kid will not be learning letters with worksheets or singing counting songs. The teachers are marvelous at bringing learning moments into focus based on what the kids are interested in. There is loose structure, but there is no curriculum and the kids are pretty free to explore. My daughter adored painting and did it every day. We loved this school and were very sad to leave. Ultimately it wasn't a good fit for our family, but it IS right for a lot of other people! Their waitlist fills up fast so be sure to tour soon and get on the waitlist in January.

The school director is great and the teachers are absolutely the best! Not for parents who think there five year old should be doing work sheets or jumping grade levels, but understand that kids are kids and the most important part of early childhood development is exploration. Don't get me wrong, this is not some hippie school but it's also not for everyone. It survives on parent support and has low enrollment fees, but parents are expected to help around the class often, which keeps overhead down. We love it and wished it continued through kinder.
