Details about our school
We are now enrolling for Fall!!
For those of you who are interested in what our school is like: Jefferson Cooperative Nursery School is designed for children ages 2-1/2 to 5. It is a high-quality, half-day program with classes held from 9 to 11:30 a.m. either 3 or 4 days a week depending on enrollment. This year (Sept. 2007 - June 2008) the classes meet on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. The Co-op also now offers extended hours with an after-care program that runs until 1:00 p.m., available for a nominal fee.
Philosophy • The preschool offers a play-oriented, structured program designed to foster independence, self-esteem and internal control. The goal is to prepare children to enter kindergarten with the skills to handle a wide variety of academic, social and interpersonal situations.
Instruction • The teacher is educated in child growth and development and has years of experience working with preschoolers.
Beautiful Facility • Located in the architecturally stunning Jefferson Avenue Presbyterian Church in Indian Village (Detroit), the preschool (which, incidentally, is not affiliated with the church) features a spacious classroom with extensive toys, arts & crafts, imaginative play area, water table, rice table, playscape and indoor gym. We are grateful to the church for providing this fabulous space to the school!
Ideal Ratio • Enrollment is typically between 5 to 10 children, allowing for an intimate teacher/parent/child ratio.
Co-op Requirements • Parents assist the teacher at class time two to three times each month, provide healthy snacks, as well as attend monthly meetings. Depending upon class size, “non-co-op” enrollment may be available for an additional fee.
Tuition • (Sept-June co-op rate): $1500/year for 3 days/week; $2000/year for 4 days/week.

Welcome to the JCNS Blog!
Greetings! Here is the blog for the Jefferson Cooperative Nursery School in Detroit, Michigan. We have a lot going on in our school! Our motivated team of parents and our fantastic teacher are planning a silent auction to celebrate the 60th birthday of the co-op. The event is scheduled for Saturday, May 24, 2008. Our list of auction items keeps growing every day, and this is where we'll show our list as it develops. As for me (Jackie S.), this is the first time I've done a blog, so please bear with me! I can't promise a post every day, but there will be more later . . .
