Hi All,
I wanted to get the word out about openings at a fantastic cooperative preschool -- the Rockville Community Nursery School (RCNS). RCNS offers a variety of classes for 2-, 3- and 4-year-olds (ranging from 1 to 5 days per week), from 9:30am-12:30pm, plus an optional Lunch Bunch (from 12:30pm-2:00pm) for kids in the 3s or 4s classes. (Parents with children turning 2 by Dec. 31st, 2009, may be particularly interested in the Friday 2s class, which is a one-day class in which parents attend _with_ their child for the fall semester, allowing these younger kiddos to become accustomed to the preschool environment at a slower pace.) As a co-op, there is a teacher and one parent in every class each day. That is, in addition to the teacher, a parent participates for the full morning in the classroom (generally one day every 3 to 4 weeks), providing parents an excellent opportunity to be an active part of their children's preschool experience. Perhaps best of all, RCNS provides a truly family-centered environment and a strong community for kids and parents alike. Please check out the website for details and additional information, and/or feel free to e-mail me backchannel with questions. www.rcnscoop.org It really is a great community of caring parents and teachers, and I encourage you to check it out for yourselves and to spread the word to friends, neighbors and colleagues who might be interested.
