Teachers at Barrow Street are practitioners of progressive education within the context of a social studies based program and a mission driven school derived from a Reggio Emilia and Bank Street inspired pedagogy. Barrow Street Nursery School builds the foundation for life-long enjoyment of learning, appreciation for the arts, and care for the community and environment. Our progressive approach is centered on collaboratively designed learning experiences. Children play an active role in co-constructing an emergent curriculum that nurtures their growing sense of identity, agency, and belonging. Teachers engage in ongoing observation, reflection and critical thinking to bring breadth and depth to learning experiences. Family partnerships are encouraged through meaningful dialogue, authentic interaction and mutual support. Our community draws strength from the diverse perspectives and backgrounds of our joyful children, dedicated teachers and engaged families.
