BRATTLEBORO, Vermont (May 1, 2023)—The Neighborhood Schoolhouse is pleased to announce that it will have a Primary classroom for the 2023-2024 school year. Children aged 4 to 6 years old will be welcomed into an immersive project- and nature-based environment. Specially trained educators will nurture and respect children’s individual skills and interests, fostering a love of learning through emergent curriculum.
“We cherish our students,” says Jocelyn York, Head of School. “Quality learning occurs best when students feel emotionally safe and know that their efforts will be valued. This is what we provide at Neighborhood. This is why our school is life-changing. I’m excited to once again open our doors to elementary-aged children.”
The Neighborhood Schoolhouse is a small independent school and child care program in Brattleboro, Vermont. An integral part of the community for over 40 years, Neighborhood Schoolhouse’s nature-based program inspires a love of learning through an emphasis on the arts, environmental education, and social-emotional skills.
