Can anyone tell me the names of some good preschools in the West Kennewick, South Richland area? We are moving to tri-cities in June and need to get my daughter registered. Thanks

I loved Bethel Pre-School at Bethel Church in S. Richland. It is a good mix of academics and play. They are definitely getting the kids ready for kindergarten. I also liked the way they handled the little problems that come up with pre-schoolers. Very level headed and calm. They are registering now I saw on a sign when I drove by that way today. We have 4 kids and had different pre-schools over the years. Bethel was my favorite.

The local college, CBC, operates a preschool coop in Richland. Few people know about it as they do not advertise.
A parent (grandparent, whomever) is required to attend with the child one day a week (meets MWF) and plan/conduct a center (art, science, literacy, cooking, math, etc.) I taught in Kenn schools for years and felt they offered a wonderful preschool experience for kids.
Do a google search for " Pasco CBC preschool coop" for information.

There is a great preschool in S. Richland at the Cathedral of Joy church, Academy of Joy. You can start your child at age 3 years old in a 2 day class and they also have a 4 & 5 year old class that you can sign up for 3 days or 5 days a week. Both of my kids went there and loved it.
