CSWS provides year round preschool for ages 3-5 & a caregiver/child community playdate for children of all ages. CSWS envisions a community where all children are honored and respected as naturally capable, curious, and creative beings. 0 0 1040910 0 915735 The Community School of West Seattle (CSWS) is a creative, exploratory and play-based preschool that each year serves 85 children between 3-5 years old, and their families. Additionally we run a monthly program one day a month called "Community Play Date" which is for children of all ages and their caregivers. Community Play Date gives families the opportunity to be in the school setting together after years of isolation due to the COVID19 pandemic and gives them safe, age appropriate opportunities to have autonomy and explore. At CSWS we believe play is the vital work of childhood and that young children learn by doing. Through authentic, emergent, project and play-based learning, the school strives to develop each student socially, emotionally, intellectually, and physically, so that every child will gain a sense of self and life-long confidence. The school's multi-age and anti-bias approach allows children to learn from, and support each other. We are inspired by Reggio philosophy and the Project Approach as foundations for our work with children. Families are an integral part of the school. We provide educational offerings to families as a way to strengthen our community and support the school as a whole, volunteer opportunities and events. CSWS is committed to anti-bias, social justice, and racial equity, including our work in the community, our work with families and our work with children. As an early learning provider, we have the potential to provide a foundation on which to build future opportunities for all children who enter our school, and throughout our community. Financially, we are committed to running a lean organization so that we can keep tuition costs reasonably low for families while still being fiscally responsible to our operation costs and providing a fair and livable wage for our staff. To ensure access for as many families as possible, CSWS accepts all state and city subsidies we are eligible to accept and we also partner with the Seattle Preschool Program to provide an entire low-cost preschool classroom. We are committed to excellence in early childhood education for all children. 0 0 0 1040910 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 7 0 1 22 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 5 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 X Whitney Young 2067632081 9450 22nd Ave SW Seattle WA 98106 Rebecca Lane Executive Director 40 0 X X 0 0 0 Dustann Jones Interim Board Chair 1 0 X X 0 0 0 Jessica Pikul Secretary 1 0 X X 0 0 0 Deborah Bloom Treasurer 1 0 X X 0 0 0 Whitney Young Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 Andrew Sullivan Director 1 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 413747 6527 0 420274 Preschool Program 624410 915735 915735 0 0 0 0 0 0 915735 1838 0 0 1838 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Insurance Claim Settlement 900099 26442 0 0 26442 0 0 0 0 26442 1364289 915735 0 28280 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 33228 7500 23853 1875 0 0 0 0 679963 674363 5600 0 0 0 0 0 42386 41364 908 114 83692 81673 1794 225 1299 1299 20087 20087 25144 24538 539 67 1745 1745 70800 69094 1516 190 536 536 115620 112832 2478 310 2144 2144 20280 19791 435 54 8208 8010 176 22 1105132 1040910 60829 3393 140729 77806 31391 111069 450 1020573 197619 843233 822954 1015803 1011829 146 3549 39600 52935 588153 568072 259788 887687 624556 X 115321 374478 12795 12795 128116 387273 1015803 1011829 259157 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 449000 449000 0 519978 164100 355878 0 0 0 0 0 51595 33519 18076 0 0 0 0 822954 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 Schedule E, Part I, Line 3 All publications include inclusion and diversity as values of our school community.
