Preschool Open House!

Grayslake, IL: The Grayslake Cooperative Nursery School (GCNS) will be holding an Open House for prospective families on Saturday March 17, and from 10 A.M. – 12 P.M.Β 

Families are invited to tour the school, meet staff members, and talk with alumni families. The oldestΒ cooperative nursery school in the area, GCNS offers a variety of two-day, three-day and five-day options for children between the ages of 2 and 6. The 2011-2012 school year marks the school’s 36th year in the community. GCNS is located on Route 137 at The Shops of Prairie Crossing in Grayslake

Registration will be accepted on-site at the Open Houses. Information on class schedules and registration may also be found on our website atΒ www.grayslake-coop.comΒ or by calling 847-223-9820.Β 

GCNS welcomes families from Grayslake, Hainesville, Round Lake, Gurnee, Mundelein, Libertyville and surrounding areas. The preschool has been providing area children with a quality preschool experience for more than thirty-five years since its founding in 1976 by a group of local mothers looking for an enriching and nurturing preschool.

Classes are taught by certified teachers, but as a cooperative, parents and staff work together to provide children with a positive school experience. As educational research consistently demonstrates, parental involvement in schools is an essential element in childhood success in schoolβ€”and the Grayslake Cooperative takes that message to heart as parents and educators are dedicated to developing children academically, emotionally, socially and physically in a nurturing, family-focused environment.Β
