Jennifer Rippy
Mrs. Rippy, our Koala and Panda teacher, has been leading our preschool classes through their days of learning and play since 2002, and was a cooperative preschool parent when her own children attended EPC beginning in 1997. She is extremely knowledgeable about co-op, and is a strong believer in play being the most important work for young children. Mrs. Rippy has had extensive training in various aspects of early childhood education, and is a trainer/coach for Brain Gym and new member CPT Training. She is married and has two children. She grew up on the South side and is proud to be such an integral part of Edgewood Cooperative Preschool, as teaching preschool is her passion!

April Kadel
Mrs. Kadel, our STAY and PLAY teacher is a wonderful addition to EPC! She came to us in 2009 with lots of experience in coop, as she had been teaching at Butler Area Cooperative Preschool for the previous 4 years. Mrs. Kadel has a great amount of experience in working with young children, including working with children and parents as a Rehabilitation Technician at St. Vincent's Children's Rehabilitation Hospital. She is married and has three children.  She is thrilled to be a part of the EPC team, as she finds great joy in working with preschoolers (and their parents)!
