Programs

Short Day Program (8:45am - 1:00 pm)
CPWN’s short day program is designed for three year old children, most of whom are new to a school setting. This program provides ample time for socialization and unstructured dramatic play, but also includes more structured activities such as a morning meeting, classroom job, time in a “specials” class and group projects. Children enrolled in the short day program learn to develop important socialization, conflict resolution, and organizational skills needed to be successful in school.

Full Day Program (8:45am - 2:30pm)
Our older children stay for an extended afternoon. This is a time when our faculty focus on developmental skills, such as language, science and numbers. The full day program offers additional structured group activities similar to those that children will experience in kindergarten such as group block-building assignments; measuring and graphing activities; and emergent literacy and math skills. Faculty also work with children on positively negotiating the social challenges that are intensified by the increasingly complex social interactions specifc to 4 & 5 year olds.
