This Week’s Spotlight: Crossing Cooperative Nursery School (CCNS)
1260 Lord Sterling Road, Washington Crossing, PA
Phone: 215-493-2535
Email: office@crossingcooperative.org
The rich tradition of Crossing Cooperative Nursery School (CCNS) began over 50 years ago when a group of parents collaborated to provide their children with a unique preschool experience. Today, CCNS remains true to its goal – providing a child-centered learning environment in which the parents are encouraged to take an active role.
Located in the former Washington Crossing Elementary School, CCNS is situated on two beautiful acres of Bucks County countryside. While maintaining its old-fashioned schoolhouse charm, the building continually evolves to meet the needs of a modern, progressive nursery school. With three classrooms, an All-Purpose Room complete with a family lending library, and a well-equipped, spacious playground with a nature trail, our children have a comfortable, safe environment in which to learn and grow.
