Garden Nursery School is completely parent and teacher run,
so parental participation is essential. Our teachers also
serve as directors of the school and parents work alongside
them in every facet of the school - they assist in the classroom,
run admissions, raise funds, purchase supplies, and maintain the facility.
The following is a list of parental responsibilities:
- Parent-teaching in the classroom 5-8 times per year.
- Participation in 2 fundraising events (usually held on
Saturdays) and other fundraising endeavors.
- Participation in 2 school clean-ups (usually held on
Saturdays).
- Attendance of parent-teacher training (one evening in the
beginning of the academic year) and all general meetings (3 per
year, generally held on Wednesday evenings).
- Fulfillment of a cooperative job (one per family). Each family
is encouraged to hold a board position for at least one year during
their time at the school.
