Facilities & Faculty

Facilities


The Stowe Cooperative Nursery School is licensed by the State of Vermont and is periodically inspected to maintain its accreditation. The school is located in a spacious, two-story building that allows separation of the different age groups, but interaction when appropriate. It is off the road with plenty of parking easily accessible in Stowe’s lower village. In 2005, we completed fundraising for a new playground and began a Capital Campaign for a new building.

Channels of Communication

  1. Board and general membership meeting minutes will be available for all members on a monthly basis. The procedures outlined on the Co-op web site, along with attendance at general membership meetings, will help keep all members informed. Notices of upcoming events will be posted in the classroom. Parents should make a habit of reading these notices. Board meetings are open to all. The time and place of these meetings are posted the week prior.
  2. Parent/teacher conferences for all parents will be held twice during the school year to discuss a child's progress and growth. These meetings are usually held in December and May. Parents who feel the need for additional conferences should feel free to contact their child's head teacher.
  3. Matters concerning your child and the daily program of the school are best handled between you and your child's head teacher. Matters concerning school philosophy, the overall program, and policies are best directed to any Board member.
