The preschool classes in three groups spanning the ages 2 to 5 1/2 run from 9AM to 1 Pm with day care before and after.

Our school age component is housed in Fellowship Hall on the corner of Cedar and Bonita immediately adjacent to the main facility. This program is a wonderful way of extending our New School community and provides an opportunity for a secure transition to the larger school world.
