Our community at Temple Shalom Nursery School is built by parents and educators who come together to create thoughtful learning opportunities for families with young children to support one another. We are proud of our beautiful indoor and outdoor educational environment and nature rich curriculum. We welcome you to learn more about our eight week summer program! If you are interested in joining our summer program, please fill out the interest form and we will be in touch if we have space!

"Every day Maya was so excited to tell me about the different activities - the program was so creative and engaging- each week was better than the last!"

"This was my daughter’s first experience with any type of drop off program. At the beginning there were tears at drop off because she was scared, but within just a few days the tears were at pick up because she didn’t want to go home."

Tuition for extended hours is added to the amount corresponding to 9:00 am – 1:00 pm part of the day. The following example explains how you can calculate your full tuition: If you choose to drop off your child at 7:45am on Tuesdays and Thursdays (twice per week) you will be charged $128 x 2 for the whole summer in addition to the 9:00-1:00 tuition.
