History of North Shore Nursery School

North Shore Nursery School is a non-profit early education program founded in 1961. Originally housed in the Unitarian Universalist Church, the school moved into the Community Reformed Church of Manhasset in June of 1993. In 1991, we became one of the first schools on Long Island to achieve accreditation from the National Academy of Early Childhood Programs, a division of the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). In 2003, we introduced a nondenominational Christian Education component to our curriculum.

North Shore Nursery School has always involved parent participation in their child’s first school experience. Parents are encouraged to be actively involved in classroom activities throughout the year.
