Sleepy Hollow is a non-profit, non-sectarian, cooperative preschool for children ages 2-5, which is run entirely by parents and a dedicated staff of teachers. We strive to create a positive and nurturing environment that promotes curiosity, creativity, and a caring spirit among our young, diverse student body. Fundraising dollars are carefully tracked so that 100% is used to help fund things like teacher training, field trips, need-based student scholarships, and supplemental curriculum materials not covered by tuition alone.
Our school is located in Annandale, Virginia, but due to the wonderful educational opportunities, families come from all over Fairfax County, Falls Church, Alexandria, and Arlington.

Our current membership and alumni families are local and very loyal to organizations that support our school. Your name and gift will be prominently featured in our auction catalog (if applicable) and on our website. If online, we will also be able to link directly to your corporate website, a new feature to the school which allows our Alumni to access your business.
