Best Nursery School Around!. Smoke Rise Nursery School offers the best of everything - the children have fun and are learning so much. The teachers and staff are fantastic - a great introduction to school for all concerned - parents and children! The new hours are great - the 3 year olds are Tuesday and Thursdays from 9-1pm and the 4 year olds are Monday, Wednesday, Friday from 9-1pm. The environment is welcoming and warm, the field trips are so much fun and the parties, sings and Mother's Day Tea are the best! Love the 2 way mirror. My 2 older sons are graduates and my daughter is now attending! Best and easiest decision - send your child here!…
Smoke Rise Nursery School. Smoke Rise Nursery School is a wonderful school. We are just finishing our third year in the school and we love it. The student to teacher ratio is fantastic and the teachers truly care about the students and provide a great place for our children to learn and have fun. The school provides all snacks, class trips and parties throughout the year. The mirror room is definitely an added bonus to come and watch your child anytime. A+…
Best nursery (preschool) in the area (Kinnelon, Bloomingdale, Butler, Oakridge, Wayne, etc.). This is my third child going through this wonderful preschool program. It is a 2 hour & 45 minute session; you can either choose the AM (9:00-11:45) or the PM (12:30-3:15) class. It is an optional co-op program. Optional, being you can pay extra not to participate. However, if you choose to participate, it is not your normal cooperative school. From my understanding, many co-op's require a parent's daily/weekly participation, Smoke Rise does not. There are 3 main requirements involved. First, you agree to be on a committee, depending on your schedule, you may want to pick a committee with little involvement to being very involved. Second, you are given approximately 1-2 weeks where you are on a substitution list and a cooking list; whereas if a teacher is sick or the school is cooking that week you will need to come in, if not, you don't. Lastly, approximately once a month, SRNS offers a class trip, in which a parent can attend with their child, make arrangements for another parent to bring your child or you can choose not to send your child to school that day. One of my favorite parts of the school is their mirror room; this is a room where the parent can look through a 2 way mirror to watch the class being conducted. Many parents enjoy being an integral part of their child's education right from the start and the children enjoy seeing their parent's involved. SRNS provides a well-rounded preschool experience in an atmosphere that fosters emotional, social, physical and cognitive development. Right now, SRNS only offers a shortened session program, but their future goal is to expand their hours and days to fit most anyone's schedule. I highly suggest if you live in the area to come and check out this unique program.…
