About ECP

We are a co-operative preschool! East Columbia Preschool is conveniently located on Cradlerock Way, in the Owen Brown Community Center.

East Columbia Preschool (ECP), was founded as Dasher Green Nursery School in 1974 by nine Owen Brown residents with a common philosophy in mind. As a cooperative preschool ("co-op"), the parents play a vital role in every aspect of the school. Parents and teachers jointly manage all aspects of the operation, including curriculum implementation, financial management, logistical oversight, fundraising, and maintenance/upkeep.

ECP is centrally located in Columbia so you can take a little down time while your little one is in school without having to rush!  We are less than a 5 minute drive to the Columbia Mall, Lifetime Fitness, 2 miles of walking trails around Lake Elkhorn, Giant Food, Starbucks, Target, Wal-Mart, lots of other shopping and many restaurants!
