MIDDLE SCHOOL AND HIGH SCHOOL YOUTH

UNION CONG NURSERY SCHOOL
A REGGIO-EMILIA APPROACH
Part-time Preschool for ages 2.5 through age 5. Inspired by the preschools in Reggio-Emilia, Italy, we believe that each child is a unique and complex human being with a keen desire to gain knowledge. We value their words, vision, and creative expression while nurturing and supporting each child’s natural enthusiasm for learning.
