Charlestown Cooperative Nursery School

Our goal is to cultivate the skills that are at the foundation of a life of happiness and success: cooperative and individual problem-solving, analytical thinking, emotional intelligence and empathy, cultural competence as well as early literacy and math skills and real-world preparation.

To achieve that, our curriculum is built around a series of explorations that grow out of the children’s authentic interests. They are playful, but far more than “play” combining the power of the children’s boundless curiosity with an expertly guided investigative approach that immerses the children in the process and joys of real discovery.

Research consistently supports that child-centered early education emphasizing authentic interests rather than a rigid curriculum leads to greater levels of information and skills acquisition, increased self-esteem and, ultimately, higher achievement. We have found this approach allows children to consistently exceed the usual educational standards, and to simultaneously develop a robust self-awareness and a joy in learning that will serve them for a lifetime.
