Pumpkin Promenade

ECPC’s Pumpkin Promenade 2022

When: October 23rd – November 1st, 2022

What: Join us as we transform ECPC’s fence line into a week-long Halloween promenade – scarecrows, pumpkins, witches, monsters, and more. There will be two spooky photo backdrops, so wear your costumes and come hunt for all the hidden items on our printable Spooky Scavenger Hunt!

This is a self-guided event that takes place completely outside of ECPC grounds on the fence and planters along Ashbury and Moeser, so you can come explore at your leisure.

Teacher Par’s Retirement

Our beloved teacher Parvaneh Farrokhmid has dedicated herself to caring for and teaching our children for 32 years at El Cerrito Preschool co-op, after her own son was a student here. Now it’s time for Par to move on to the next chapter in her life, as she has decided to retire from ECPC at the end of December.

In recognition of the service she had provided for ECPC members both past and current, we hope to provide her with a bonus that reflects the esteem and appreciation we have for all she has contributed to our children’s development and growth. It is hard to imagine the morning program beginning without Par’s warm smile to greet children and families but we wish Par the best.

Though the members may wish differently, at Par’s request there will not be any gathering in recognition of her retirement at what is certain to be a bittersweet time for a woman who had dedicated her working life to ECPC.

East Bay Preschool Fair

Thank you to the many families who stopped by the ECPC booth at the East Bay Preschool Fair.  It was such a pleasure to meet you and your little ones. And what a great opportunity to share what our school is all about! We hope to see you at our next tour – please email enrollment@ecpckids.com for our next tour dates.

New Messy Art Day Video

ECPC is happy to release its latest video created by one of our own talented parents, Jeremy Troy. He has done an amazing job in capturing the spirit of Messy Art Day, what it means to the school and the larger community. The reaction of the kids is truly priceless! You can view the video on ECPC’s homepage.

We’ve also added a Galleries tab to our website where you can peruse through some of our favorite photos and videos highlighting our school.
