Perinton Nursery School

"I am so grateful for my family's experience with PNS. Our oldest is now in kindergarten and was given a solid foundation and was absolutely prepared by the programming. The teachers create an environment where learning is fun and exciting and they foster a love for school. We have another child in the 3's class this year and he is also having a wonderful experience, and we can't wait for our youngest to start next year as well. We love being a part of the cooperative because of the connection to our children's schooling, the decision-making we get to be a part of, and the sense of community that it creates. Perinton Nursery School is a very special place."

"We LOVE PNS! The Reggio Emilia philosophy style has been so great for our son. The three connecting rooms making one large classroom is really special and we love how much room there is for exploration and learning."

"Being part of the PNS Co-Op community has been a great experience for our family. The school and teachers are so warm and welcoming, with plenty of spaces to learn and spark creativity. Being able to be involved in our child's school throughout the year - in the classroom setting, social events for the students, and school events for families to participate in - has been such a joy. So happy to be a PNS Alumni family for our upcoming preschooler!"

"We love Mrs. Heather! She does an amazing job of interweaving pre-kindergarten academics into a play-based learning environment. My daughter went from recognizing a handful of letters at the beginning of the 4’s class to knowing almost all the letters and their sounds by May. Best part, my daughter had a ton of fun while doing it. I also loved helping in the classroom. It was just plain fun to participate in the school day, and it also provided me with some insights into how to integrate learning into our daily experiences at home. We couldn’t be happier with our PNS experience!"

"We are excited to be sending our second child through PNS next year. Ms Heather does a great job leading the children through play based learning setting them up for great success for Fairport’s Kindergarten curriculum. The community and Coop nature is a great way to be involved in your child’s education. The large windows and outdoor space really is a perfect setting for children to learn in. The teachers really make great use of technology to keep you updated on what’s happening inside the classroom so that you ask your kids the right printing questions creating dialogue about their day versus just getting the “nothing” or “I don’t know” answers when you ask about their day, you will find it rewarding!"
