Description: The Linwood Nursery School is a cooperative preschool located at the Seaview Baptist Church in Linwood, NJ. We offer classes for children ages 3-4 and for children ages 4-5 with a focus on play-based learning opportunities.
Now in its 40th year, the school is a non-religious educational experience in which parents get to enjoy the early school years with their children. As parent co-op, LNS gives parents the privilege of participating in the decisions and activities of the school. The parents run the school. Each parent decides the level of involvement he/she desires from helping on a committee to being president of the school. Classroom participation is required on a rotating basis to allow the parents to interact with their child during the school day.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
