Our History
Report
Pittsford Nursery School (PCNS) was first organized in 1952 when a group of mothers with young children met regularly and eventually developed a cooperative preschool. Headed by Betty Wright, the school hired their first teacher, Rosemary Harley, in 1953. For over sixty years, PCNS has embraced the idea of a cooperative educational experience.
Our Program
Report
Our teachers from all levels (ages 2 through Young K) work together on developing a curriculum that naturally flows and adjusts to the changes and needs of our population. Our curriculum is committed to nurturing each child's social, emotional, intellectual and physical development through discovery and play.
Faq
Report
We believe a cooperative preschool is one that involves both school and families as active participants in their children's learning. Our teachers and families come together to inspire development in a warm environment. This means parents are involved as assistants in the classroom and as volunteers for other school activities.
Testimonials
Report
Our family has truly enjoyed our involvement with PCNS. The cooperative experience has allowed us to assume an active role in the early education of all of our children, while introducing us to families who share similar values and child rearing styles. The teachers genuinely care about the well-being of each student.
