About Russell Cooperative Preschool
Located in the heart of Watertown Square, Russell Cooperative Preschool was founded in 1975 by a group of parents wanting to provide quality preschool education in a warm, supportive, and open atmosphere. Recognizing that play is essential for young children, the school offers a rich variety of experiences to allow and encourage social, emotional, and creative growth. Russell encourages children to discover their own special abilities and interests, to learn the pleasures and responsibilities of being a group member, and to build new friendships.
