The nursery school rooms are play centered environments with a wide range of materials and activities designed to give each child the opportunity to learn according to their individual interests and needs. Every day, an array of new ideas and experiences are presented, and our teachers gently and warmly guide the children. In this way, we can promise your child a year full of fun and active learning. All classes follow "The Creative Curriculum for Preschool and Toddlers". The four year olds also are instructed in handwriting following the "Handwriting Without Tears" program taught in the Ramapo School District.
Y's Beginnings follows the Ramapo Central School District holiday closing schedule.
