Countryside Nursery School is committed to providing an enriched educational experience that allows children to discover their unique abilities in an environment that fosters creativity, exploration, and acceptance. We aim to build a strong foundation for future learning and success through a careful balance of teacher-guided and child-directed activities.
We make it our goal at Countryside Nursery School to positively impact young minds with a love of learning that will accompany them through their entire lives.
Since 1979 our goal at Countryside Nursery School has always been:
- to help gain an appreciation of the world around them;
- to experience pleasure through creative expression in art, music, and drama;
- to learn to express themselves;
- to develop desirable social behavior while learning to deal with his/her feelings and those of their piers.
At the starting age of 3, the world is open for discovery at Countryside Nursery School! Enroll your child in our preschool programs where we provide a nurturing environment for learning readiness. Your child can prepare for academic achievement and lifelong success here under the supervision of our experienced teachers who are all degree holders. Countryside Nursery School is also a member of the National Association for the Education of Young Children. We make use of an integrated age-appropriate curriculum that encourages social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development. Your child will have ample interaction with peers and educators alike with the small class sizes that we maintain: 1:6 teacher to student ratio.
