When comparing nursery schools, this school will stand out among all others... Swim and gym class are weekly classes, which is not offered anywhere else! Teacher/student ratio is 1 to 8, which gives each child personal attention. Teachers prepare children for an easy transition to kindergarten. They teach them the essential academics, and prepare them for independence and responsibility. Location is ideal! I traveled from New Canaan, and it only took 7 minutes each way, via the back roads. The nursery school is very safe and secure, and has many activities for parent/child interaction. I had two children attend this school, and both of my children entered kindergarten reading and writing past the required level.
