NSN began through the cooperative efforts of local parents who felt the need for an additional choice of nursery schools in the community. A school that would pay close attention to each child's individual developmental needs and progress. As a parent-developed and -operated school, families are integrally involved in all aspects of the school's functioning.
Nursery School of the Nyacks (NSN) promotes an environment where children are encouraged to bring their imaginations, enthusiasm for discovery, and excitement for learning. Within a safe and nurturing co-op environment, our children learn through play. They try out roles, act out "what-ifs, " express ideas, try out solutions to problems, and simply imagine.
