Mission Statement 
At CNS, we believe that the social and physical development of the preschool child is enhanced by nursery school. We focus on the growth and development of the whole child. 

In our school, each child is helped to: define a positive self-image, feel confident about his or her new accomplishments, develop new relationships, build the foundation for educational success in future years. 

We feel that school activities encourage each child to relate to others through listening, sharing, taking turns, following directions and concentrating on activities. This is achieved by participation that is structured in a warm, supportive atmosphere within developmentally appropriate classes.

Community Nursery School becomes a second home for the entire family…a place where children are encouraged and nurtured… a place where laughter echoes through the hallways and play is considered your child's work.

• Ages: 3- 6
• Class times: 2-3 day half day options (9am-12pm or 1-4pm), 2 Full days 9am-4pm, Extended hours available at 8:30am and for lunch and until 4:30pm
  
• Tuition: Range $4,040-$10,770/school year depending upon enrollment option

Mission Statement:
Our nature-based program philosophy is based on the idea that multi-sensory, inquiry-based exploration of the natural world will guide young children in emergent science, language and math activities that will lead them to develop positive dispositions for future learning. We strive to nurture the healthy growth of the “whole child”. We cultivate a sense of community in our program through activities that allow children to develop positive social skills, and we offer seasonal school community social events that take place during the course of the school year.

Mission Statement
Lincoln Country Day School’s philosophy is based on two concepts. First, we believe that each child is a unique individual who will develop physically, cognitively, emotionally and socially at his or her own pace. We believe that children are competent learners, capable of embracing new ideas and engaging with the world around them. Second, we believe children learn through play. Play is their work. It is through play that children practice their social skills. Through play, academic concepts are introduced and children have a chance to use their imagination. Through play, children will naturally learn to become independent critical thinkers. We like to think that children consider Lincoln Country Day School their second home…a place where they are accepted and loved… a place where laughter and play are treasured.
