About Us
Our Mission
The South Shore Community Center Nursery School focuses on the individuality and uniqueness of each child. We provide an environment that allows each child to develop at their own pace. Activities are planned that encourage self-confidence, spontaneity, curiosity, and self-discipline, as well as assisting in the development of the child's social and emotional health.
Our Philosophy
The South Shore Community Center Nursery School believes that play is a child's work and that learning occurs during developmentally appropriate, child-centered activities. Children learn concepts best when they are meaningful and relevant to them. Consequently, it is the teacher's responsibility to create a learning-enriched environment, which provides stimulating and challenging experiences for children. The teacher acts as a facilitator: encouraging, promoting and reinforcing a child's attempts, questions, skill development, and discoveries. Our programs recognize children as core participants, encouraging active engagement and laying the foundation for lifelong learning.
Community
We are part of the South Shore Community Center (SSCC). The SSCC’s purpose is to maintain an organization for the civic, social, charitable, educational and recreational betterment of the town and surrounding communities. We have been fostering and encouraging this purpose by providing quality programs from infant to adult for over 40 years. We provide a range of classes including cooking, bowling, gym classes, health and wellness seminars and more.
