Parent Participation

We are a Parent Cooperative (Co-op) and parent participation is the cornerstone of our school. This structure promotes a community atmosphere while keeping tuition costs down.

As a Cooperative Preschool, HRNS offers both parents and children the opportunity to interact with diverse personalities and the many gifts each individual has to offer. Additionally, we strive to nurture the whole family by providing support, partnership, and resources that enable parents to meet the challenges of parenting. We are a team of children, parents, and staff who work together to help and encourage enthusiasm for learning and caring for ourselves, our community and our environment.
