About Us
Pleasant Hill Recreation & Park District Preschool was officially established in 1973. We started with just one preschool class and one teacher for children age 3-4, offered as part of the Pleasant Hill Recreation & Park District.
Over the past 40 years, we have blossomed from these humble beginnings. Now we have 12 experienced teachers on staff, over 150 preschool students, age 1 year 6 months through 5 years, and 2 campus locations: Pleasant Hill Winslow center and Pleasant Hill Community Center. We have flourished into the comprehensive preschool program you will find today.
Pleasant Hill Recreation Preschool is a part time recreational preschool program exempt from licensing. All of our staff are certified in CPR, 1st Aid and are fingerprinted through the Department of Justice.
We want your child to love going to school!
Programs are designed to encourage your child to enjoy learning.
