Welcome to Toms River Nursery School
LEARNING THROUGH PLAY AND DISCOVERY
Toms River Nursery School, established in 1945, has been serving the families in the Toms River area for 71 years. Our school is a non-profit parent cooperative school, owned by the parents and students currently enrolled. Parents are encouraged to be active participants in their child’s pre-school experience. Visits to the classrooms for events are common, but parents also can be seen reading a story to our children or assisting with a class project.
Mission
As a teacher, one must invite curiosity, encourage creativity, and inspire ideas. The teacher must set a stage that stimulates the need to ask questions and seek solutions while allowing the child freedom to develop his or her own style of “work-play”.
Independence is encouraged with the clear understanding that it carries with it a social responsibility. Finally, the teacher stimulates and inculcates in the child a feeling for aesthetic and moral values by her own enthusiasm and attitudes.
Programs
Toms River Nursery School offers toddler, nursery and pre-kindergarten programs that encourage learning through play and discovery. Our goal is to educate each child in a happy and healthy atmosphere that offers learning experiences that will stimulate each child’s curiosity, and develop an excitement for learning.
Registration
All Toms River Nursery School programs adhere to an October 1st cutoff date and require children to be toilet trained.
