Begin your child’s journey to school and lifelong learning at Bowen. Enrollment in Bowen’s Pre-K Program is now open for Fall 2016.
Did your child JUST miss the kindergarten cut-off? Would your child benefit from an extra year of academic and social development? If you answered “yes” to one (or both) of these questions, then take a look at Bowen’s Pre-K program which offers a unique opportunity for a third year of pre-school. Pre-K at Bowen combines an exciting mix of academics and social skills brought together by a dedicated team of teachers. These older 4’s and young 5’s work toward goals comparable to those in kindergarten but at a modified pace in a much smaller community with a 7:1 child teacher ratio. This class of 14 quickly becomes a cohesive group working, playing and learning together with enthusiasm. The Pre-K program runs Monday-Friday from 8:30 am – 1:00 pm.
For more information about the Pre-K program and an application form, please contact Bowen’s Director Nina Tebaldi at 617-3923 or visit www.BowenCoop.org.
Bowen Cooperative Nursery School offers programs for kids ages 2.9 to 5 years old, including a Pre-K program for older 4’s and younger 5’s who will not be entering kindergarten in the fall. It’s a small, warm, nurturing community of families. Founded in 1955, Bowen is one of the oldest, continuously running cooperative preschools in the country. The school’s low adult to child ratio ensures individualized attention and a supportive environment that encourages exploration, experimentation and discovery while supporting emergent literacy and math skills, science, music and art.
