Welcome to the St. George Co-Op Nursery School!

For 40 years, families from the St. George and surrounding area have worked together to keep our school going strong. We create a unique and enriching preschool environment for our children (aged 27 months to 5 years) with benefits extending to our families and our community.

A Co-operative program provides an opportunity for parents to be directly involved in their child’s experience, helping them develop socially, academically, and emotionally; in the company of their peers, and under the tutelage of an E.C.E. qualified teacher. This is not a day-care or a babysitting service. Membership in the co-op requires participation, commitment and flexibility from all families enrolled. What your child and you take out of Co-op is a direct reflection of what we all put in.

"As a parent, I whole-heartedly recommend the co-op preschool program. My two children had their first experiences socializing with new friends in a safe and loving environment. They were excited every day that they went to school and loved to tell me all about their day when they got home. The co-op’s teacher, Miss Shannon always provided a loving, fun environment while setting clear boundaries and expectations. I was able to be a part of my children’s preschool experience by being a duty parent several times. As a Early Years (Kindergarten) teacher with 10 years experience, I would encourage all parents to enter their children in a preschool program before they begin Junior Kindergarten. The transition from being home with mom and dad to starting a “big kid” school is a big step for kids and for parents. In my experience, more than knowing their alphabet or number recognition, children made the transition to the JK program more smoothly and successfully when they had had experiences being around other children in a learning environment such as a preschool. I would highly recommend the program."

"There could be no better start to your child's social and academic career than the St. George Co-operative Nursery School. Their teacher, Shannon Berardi, provides a loving and safe environment for children to learn and explore within these crucial early formative years. Miss. Shannon's gentle demeanor and expertize coupled with the educational programs that she utilizes, helps introduce young learners to fundamental concepts in a fun and engaging manner. Each child meets growing success in a postive and loving environment. Being a Junior/Senior Kindergarten teacher, and a mom, I would not place my children in any other program but Miss Shannon's. My own children have had a tremendous experience within the school, one a successful graduate and the other currently attending. To watch them laugh, play, and learn both socially and academically is amazing. You could not give your child a more positive and enriching experience than attending Miss. Shannon's class at the St. George Co-op Nursery School."
