Who We Are
The Windsor Nursery School is a Parent Co-operative that was established in 1961 in a church basement through community minded parent volunteers. The school officially became a registered non-profit society in 1975. With growth of the preschool co-operative school, and a rising need to expand their facilities, they eventually bought the old Curry's Corner School at 122 Cottage Street from the Town Of Windsor for $1.00! We continue to grow and prosper here today, through the combined efforts of parents and community support.
Membership in the Windsor Nursery School Society
Each parent/guardian automatically becomes a member of the Windsor Nursery School Society upon enrollment of their child in the school. They are allowed to attend general meetings and each family holds one vote in the decision to be made. Parents/guardians are also entitled to hold any position of office in the Parent Executive. A copy of the by-laws is available upon request.
The nature of the Parent Co-operative requires that parents participate in the business of the school. Responsibilities include:
Serving on at least one parent committee in an active way
Participating in school fund raising activities
Attending scheduled parent meetings
Provide nutritious snacks throughout the year on a rotating schedule
Participating in a month-end clean-up at least once per year
Washing paint shirts and dress-up clothes on a rotating schedule
Participating and assisting with transport during field trips
