A Cooperative Preschool & Kindergarten
LEARNING THROUGH PLAY
Charlestown Playhouse is a non-profit, parent-cooperative preschool. that emphasizes learning through child-centered play, the importance of supporting social and emotional development in young children, the beauty and value of nature and a strong sense of community. At Charlestown Playhouse, we believe that it is through play and active involvement with real materials that children learn best about themselves and their world.
Founded in 1936, we are licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Education as a private academic preschool and kindergarten. We are also licensed with the PA Department for Human Services for childcare.
