Welcome

Hicksville Nursery School, a nonprofit, nonsectarian cooperative, is a unique educational experience for both children and their families. We encourage visitors to come to our school and see our enthusiastic students, actively engaged in learning and relating to one another.

At Hicksville Nursery School, we recognize that all children come to us fully equipped to explore their world, make new discoveries and connections, and to challenge themselves and others. As early childhood educators, we accept the responsibility of ensuring that the materials and experience we provide continue to fan the flames of our students' natural curiosity and creativity.

Our world changes at a pace that is beyond our imagination. What we do know is that young children will be most successful in our ever evolving world if they possess and have practiced the use of a variety of tools and sound habits of mind-creative and critical thinking, the willingness to take risks, the courage to share an amazing idea, and a strong opinion and the ability to respect and celebrate the differences in everyone they encounter.  The faculty and staff at Hicksville Nursery School are dedicated to facilitating students' ability to work and play cooperatively, and to adapt him/herself to separation from home to becoming happy in a new environment.

I trust that the welcoming faces and information on our website will encourage you to call and we welcome your visit!
