WCNS Depends Upon Community Collaboration and Contributions
Each day at WCNS is filled with opportunities to discover and inquire, and to share and build confidence. Instilling basic learning principles through play, and taking education beyond the classroom by connecting their play to the world outside, prepares our children for success in their future educational experiences, as well as in life. The cooperative nature of WCNS provides continuous learning for our 3- and 4-year-olds, and also in a unique way for our teachers, parents, and the members of our community: anyone who will encounter these well-grounded, knowledge-hungry children. The success of this collaborative environment depends upon creativity, resourcefulness, and support from friends and family.

For over 50 years, WCNS has successfully provided our children, and our community, with one of the highest quality preschools possible. WCNS has also maintained its commitment to offering this educational experience at a reasonable rate and to offering financial assistance to families in need. In order to do so, we rely on members of our extended community for whom we are so grateful.
