School Philosophy and Mission
"The classroom layouts, the material and the curriculum are all carefully considered by the teachers in order to provide the best possible environment for young children. A thoughtful balance between learning objectives, social and emotional needs and quality playtime is evident throughout. “Structured flexibility” best describes the children's time spent at CNS. Order in the day's scheduling and planned environment increases a child's security in him or herself and in the school. Yet great flexibility is allowed to recognize the need for each child's individual pace, interests, and maturity level. Independence, through supportive guidance, is a continual goal.

Montessori? Waldorf? Play-based?
What school type is right for your child? Is one model better than another? What does the research say?

Today's “Preschool’s Out” Activity
Trace around your child's foot, with shoe on, on a piece of white construction paper or card stock. Have child cut out the shoe print and add a spooky face. Glue it to a popsicle stick and you have a ghost stick puppet!
