We are a unique parent cooperative located in West University Place, Texas. For over forty years, our play-based preschool has helped develop the necessary skills children will need in elementary school and beyond. Research supports the benefits of play-based education as one of the best forms of learning.
Through play, children can develop their creativity, social emotional skills, and develop problem solving and critical thinking skills. At Beehive, our play-based environment encourages children to become independent thinkers and explore learning through their interests. Our younger learners begin their education journey by learning the basic foundations of reading, writing, and numbers though song and play.

Fundraising
Report
While we are sad to see Beehive's 47 year legacy on West U Elementary's campus end, we are thrilled to announce Beehive is officially relocating to Bissonnet and Westchester! We are excited to have a long-term agreement with the West University Church of Christ and will be renovating and using an entire wing of their building!
History of Beehive
Report
In the early 1970's, West University resident and early childhood educator Ann Wallin acted on her vision of creating a preschool in which her children and neighborhood friends could enhance their development, and parents could enrich their parenting skills. She and her friend Marcia Wall obtained permission from her church, St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, to use one of the church's classrooms to pilot their idea.
