Triangle Cooperative Preschool

COVID-19 UPDATE

It is with heavy hearts that we have decided not to open for the remainder of the academic year. After looking at the current and projected case numbers, we do not feel as though we can safely reopen until Fall 2021. We are putting all of our energy into creating a safe environment to see everyone in September! If you are interested in joining our community for Fall 2021 our application is now live!

Our Teachers

Our teachers make Triangle a special place to begin your child’s education. Renée and Christine care about the individual talents that each child brings to the class and look forward to working with parents to ensure that everyone has a fun and successful year.

Renée Pesheck

Renée Pesheck is the teacher for the Triangle At Home class.  She received her Masters and Teaching Certification at the University of Michigan in 2011 and she brings extensive experience to the classroom:

  • Preschool teacher at The University of Michigan Hospital Child Care Center and Stony Creek Preschool
  • Kindergarten teacher in Milan, Michigan
  • ELL teacher to grades Kindergarten-Fifth in the Ann Arbor Public Schools

Renée strongly believes that children learn through play and exploration.  She is passionate about being developmentally focused and following the interests of children in her teaching.  Watching a child enthralled while discovering the movements and texture of an earthworm, or seeing a student’s eyes light up when they join in with a well-known story and chant “Fee, Fi, Fo, Fum!” are moments that fuel her passion for teaching young children.

Renée is in the unique position of having been a parent and now a teacher at Triangle.  From 2001-2003 Renée sent her boy/girl twins to Triangle and she still cherishes the community she found and the friendships she made way back then.

When not teaching you are likely to find Renée volunteering at the Humane Society of Huron Valley, meeting with her book club, making pottery, or exploring fun places and events with her husband, Eric.

Christine LawChristine Law

Christine Law is the teacher for the Preschool class and Parent-Child Group at Triangle Cooperative Preschool. She began teaching at Triangle in 2012. Christine’s exceptional contributions to our school include the following:

  • Waldorf Early Childhood Education philosophies
  • Emphasis on the importance of play and time outdoors for learning and the healthy development of the young child.
  • Play therapy strategies for the classroom
  • Yoga and mindfulness to support children in being balanced, creative, and calm

Christine has taught children for over thirty-four years. She received her B.S. from Michigan State University in Parks and Recreation with a Therapeutic Recreation emphasis. Her training in Waldorf Early Childhood Education was earned at Sunbridge College. She is a Registered Yoga Teacher with a certification in Children’s Yoga. She continues her education by attending conferences and workshops in Play, Children’s Yoga and Child development.

Previous experience includes teaching for four years at Rudolf Steiner School of Ann Arbor as the lead Prekindergarten Teacher in a program that she co-created and launched. She taught music and art at Chelsea Center for the Arts and taught parent/child classes at the Friend’s Center in Chelsea, the YMCA, and Chelsea Magic Years.  In additional, Christine taught theater to children ages 3 to 14.

She currently teaches yoga to families and children.

Parent Testimonial – Sarah Thompson

My son has absolutely blossomed at Triangle. My older child was in a day care center based preschool program, and I was very skeptical of the co-op model at first. I am still a little in awe of how quickly and fully we were embraced by the Triangle community. I am so appreciative of the opportunity to be so closely involved with my child's preschool education, and proud to be part of a team of such dedicated and supportive teachers and parents.
