At Brooklyn, we offer open-ended activities to allow children to make choices in their work and play while engaging with other children. We also enable and empower children to develop a sense of confidence and strong self-esteem. Different learning styles are supported by many kinds of activities which promote social, emotional, creative, physical and intellectual development. (Article on the importance of play from PCPO Connection Sept. ’04) By Lynn Peterson)  "Brooklyn Cooperative Preschool does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, sexual orientation, or national and/or ethnic origin."  Brooklyn Preschool recently earned an “Eco-Healthy Childcare” certification from the Oregon Environmental Council.
