San Marino Community Church Nursery School

The Program

Established in 1953 as a state-licensed, non-profit school that is open to any child, regardless of race, religion, or national ancestry, the School provides a planned program offering young children opportunities for social and emotional growth as well as preparation for kindergarten. Our philosophy is based on what is developmentally appropriate for each individual child and how we can help children reach their potential socially, emotionally, cognitively, and physically. Children ages three, four, and five learn through active play, exploring their environment and interaction with others. The teachers are guides who create an environment that encourages exploration, creativity, discovery, and problem-solving. Nursery school should be a place of joy and laughter where each child is met with unconditional positive regard.
