Benson Hill Cooperative Preschool

"We love Benson hill coop school! The teacher Miss Kristie is amazing with the kids! She offers a wide variety of activities, playful learning, and thoughtful structure of the classes, while attending very caring to each child! The equipment in the classroom is from high quality and mostly new or in an amazing shape(also well organized). My son and daughter miss Ms. Kristie now 2 weeks into kindergarten. Highly recommend touring the classroom or coming to open house that are hosted by Ms. Kristie & board member and see for yourself."

"My daughter is 3 and just finished her first year at Benson Hill Co-op. We both loved it! The teachers Ms. Tracie and Ms. Kristie are both kind, encouraging and fantastic with young kids. Also as I’m currently a SAHM, I really liked the cooperative set up of the school since it allowed me to play and engage with my child but also to meet other parents with similar aged kids and form an enjoyable community. Would definitely recommend for other parents with preschool age kids!"

"This is our first year at Benson Hill Co-Op. My son absolutely loves going to preschool here. I love the sense of community & how welcoming everyone is. We are currently in the 2/3's class called Sparrows with Ms. Tracie and plan to continue the next 2 years with Ms. Kristie in the Eagles/Owls class. I highly recommend taking a tour/trial class. After we did the trial class we felt right at home & knew Benson Hill was the right fit for us."

"My kid and I toured a few preschools in the area and settled on BHCP because we both felt an instant connection with the educational style (based on play) and people. That connection has gotten even stronger over two years and we are really happy to be part of such a kind and supportive learning environment. Everyone at BHCP works hard to make the preschool an extremely safe and positive place for both the kids and the parents. As a parent I feel like I'm learning just as much as my kid about being compassionate and working together to make the world a better place."

"This is my first year at Benson Hill Co-op and so far it is everything I hoped it would be. Probably one of the most affordable pre-schools you will find, and there is a lot more direct interaction with the school than you would get with a regular preschool. So far my experience in volunteering as a parent has been very enjoyable, and my child really loves spending time here (he often doesn't want to leave at the end of class). The teachers are fantastic people who truly love what they do. If you get the opportunity to enroll your child here I would highly recommend it."
