St. Andrew's Nursery School

St. Andrew's Nursery School is a non-sectarian nursery school for three and four year old children. The school is open three days a week. Our Staff Anne Marie Verrino, Director Pamela Crozier, Teacher Jack Stunkel, Treasurer For more information, contact the Church Office   We believe that children are to be nurtured, loved, and respected and that their parents deserve our support. The cooperative nursery school system builds strong learning skills at a young age and prepares children for entering school systems. Our two-year developmental curriculum builds on the children's abilities and gets them ready for the more difficult kindergarten requirements. Having parents regularly involved in their child's classroom (by being a helping parent for the day), supports consistent involvement in their child's education, which is a key factor in a child's academic success. Our philosophy and our environment are what make St. Andrew's Nursery School such a special place.
