Bayshore Nursery School, Long Beach

The philosophy of the Bayshore Co-operative Preschool is that children learn by example, by exposure, by experiences, by interacting with and being encouraged in a safe and secure environment; the end result being a child with a strong sense of self-esteem. The goals of the Bayshore Co-op Preschool are: 1. To help the child get along with and respect other people. 2. To provide experiences appropriate for all ages so that each child can take from it what he or she needs at that particular time. 3. To help parents achieve a better understanding and enjoyment of their child through observation and interaction as their child progresses through the growth stages. 4. To help the child become more aware of the world around him or her.
