El Segundo Co-op Nursery school has been in operation since 1947 and incorporated in 1948. Our aim is to promote the physical, mental, emotional and social growth of the children.

We Believe

• Children learn from hands-on experiences.
• Learning should be about the process, not the product.
• Children develop at varying rates and times.
• Children learn though play.
• Teachable moments happen many times throughout the day.
• Creating a safe, nurturing learning environment promotes learning.
• Young children thrive in environments that create routine.
• Asking open-ended questions facilitates the development of critical-thinking skills.
• Preschool is the prime opportunity to develop social skills.
• Activities should focus on the whole child and help the child develop socially, emotionally, physically and intellectually.
