About the School | What is a Co-Op? | Parent's Role | Programs and Tuition | Photo Gallery
Our goal at CCNS is to provide rich experiences and opportunities for
children to develop sound relationships with other youngsters and to provide a
nurturing environment where children can develop good feelings about themselves,
their abilities, and the world around them.
Our school offers a place where you can share in your child's nursery school
experience, meet other parents who are interested in participating and sharing
in the same way...and who can actually have a hand in the running of the school.
Our school is Christian based, and is non-denominational (we lease space from
our host church). Our Christian practices include prayer before snacks, the
celebration of holidays, and periodically the pastors of our host church will
share bible stories with the children.
Our school is fortunate to have a wonderful working relationship with the
Marianne Frostig Center of Educational Therapy. Three times a year (in addition
to speakers at our parent meetings), scheduled visitations provide a team of
professionals at our school site to observe all our children, evaluate our
programs and assist our teachers in providing feedback to our parents. These
professionals may be consulted (by private arrangements) when a need arises.
Our School is for children between the ages of 2 years 9 month through 5 years.
A Monday-Wednesday-Friday program for four year olds and a Tuesday-Thursday
program for three year olds are available for the children.
Each School day is from 9 to 11:45 a.m. The school year, including holidays,
corresponds with that of Glendale Unified School District. All children must
be toilet trained. Every effort is made to balance classes according to gender.
The class size is 15-20 children per class. Each class has a teacher and two
to three parent aides, which makes our school one of very few to have an adult
to child ratio of 1 to 5.
