The afternoon class is taught by Emily Rowley. Emily has a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education from Cedarville University in Cedarville, Ohio and five years of teaching experience in lower elementary classrooms. This is her sixth year teaching at Westminster and third year as director after serving as co-director for three years.  As mother to two WCP graduates, Emily enjoyed volunteering as a weekly parent assistant during her son's time at Westminster Co-op Preschool.

​Assistants
For the safety of the children, we plan to have two adults in the morning classes at all times. If the afternoon class has more than 10 students enrolled, there must also be two adults in the classroom at all times.  To meet this requirement, parent assistants are scheduled to work in the classroom. Family members are encouraged to apply to be parent assistants upon enrollment. Parent assistants are scheduled to work on the same day each week to provide consistency for the children. They receive a tuition discount for volunteering their time. If several parents would like to have this opportunity, we will schedule different parent assistants each semester. If we do not have enough parent assistants, families will take turns working in the classroom each week.

We Would Love to Have You Visit Soon!
