| At CNS it is our job to give the children the guidance,
tools, and encouragement they need to prepare for their future--and, of
course, to have a wonderful time in the present.
. We emphasize basic cognitive skills and problem-solving activities, helping children apply what they learn to their own life experiences. Helping a child relate information to new situations promotes higher level thinking skills. These skills are the building blocks of independent learning. . We encourage the children to be considerate of the needs, feelings and interests of their friends, teachers, parents and siblings. We encourage the children to find creative and successful ways to solve problems and to express their feelings. . We provide an enriching, accepting atmosphere for the children. Our goal is to build strong feelings of self esteem. This is a valuable life skill that will carry the child well beyond his years of formal education. . We offer many special enrichment opportunities including music, movement, computer lab, a two-year science curriculum, developmental art and Spanish language vocabulary. Admissions Standards. We offer a variety of schedules, either full or part time, both a.m. and p.m., M-F, MWF or T-Th. The school day is from 9:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. Our day is full of an age appropriate mixture of social and emotional encouragement, as well as a literature based curriculum plus a variety of enrichment classes. CNS Staff. All staff members are CPR trained. Emergency response programs have been developed for the school, and all staff members are prepared to handle any unusual circumstances that could arise.
