A cooperative nursery school is a nonprofit group established to provide activities for children, to teach self-reliance
and personality development in preparation for school experience. The program will be one of teacher-directed creative play
and instructional learning activities.
We offer two diffferent classes based on your child's or children's needs.
The Tuesday/Thursday class is held from 9am - noon and is geared toward 3 and 4 year old children to introduce them
to a school setting. The children will participate in class room activities and work as well as socialize with children
their own age.
The Monday/Wednesday/Friday class is held from 9:00am - 1:00pm which includes a scheduled lunch break and geared
toward 4 and 5 year olds. This class is a prekindergarten class designed to prepare them for just that. They will
concentrate on kindergarten readiness and also develop the social and small/large motor skills that will benefit their
move to the next level of education.
