MISSION & PHILOSOPHY
St. John’s Nursery School is a NAEYC (www.naeyc.org)
accredited pre-school established to meet the needs of the three-year old
nursery school child. St. John’s
has served young children for over thirty-five years in Westwood.
A curriculum has been set up to provide a diverse, creative learning
experience catering to the child’s developmental level. The program follows a
structured plan while leaving room for flexibility that allows the children to
be creative and explore many materials within an enriching, literacy-based
environment. Children grow into relationships with peers while subtly directed
by an attentive and dedicated staff. The curriculum is designed to help each
child develop emotionally, physically, intellectually and socially in a caring
environment. Each child is accepted as an individual and is encouraged to grow
with independence, self-assurance, and self-esteem.
