Denver Cooperative Preschool (DCP) embraces the joyful and spontaneous benefits children receive from exploring and experimenting in a safe and nurturing environment. We believe that this natural and important activity called "play" is what enhances development in children. Through the guidance of well qualified teachers, children have the opportunity to creatively explore their environment, as well as develop a strong sense of self-esteem in an environment where children have many choices and opportunities for creating, communicating, and discovering.
