Nashua Early Education Program

About our program

 The Nashua Early Education Program (NEEP) provides an integrated preschool experience for children ages three to five. Our program offers a developmental learning approach where typically developing children and children with special needs come together to learn.

 The premise of our program is that young children learn best through an activity-based curriculum. Various activities are presented through play, giving each child the opportunity to learn in all areas of development such as gross and fine motor skills, language and cognitive skills, visual and auditory skills and daily living skills. The program is intended to foster habits and attitudes that help children feel good about themselves and secure in their environments.

About Our Staff

Members of our teaching staff are certified by the State of New Hampshire and keep current with best practices in early childhood education by attaching workshops and seminars. Each classroom has paraprofessional teaching support staff to assist students and the classroom teacher. In addition, therapy staff (speech pathologist, occupational and physical therapists) is assigned to each class as needed.

Parent Involvement

 We like to maintain close involvement with our parents. This would be accomplished by:

 Parent/Teacher conferences- A parent/teacher conference may be held at any time during the school year upon request by the parent or school.

 Newsletter- At the beginning of each month, from September to June, a school newsletter is sent home with every child. The newsletter provides information on curriculum themes, songs, books, and other activities we are working on in the classroom.

 Parent Groups- Designed yearly to meet the needs of the parents.

 Parent Volunteers- Our program offers you the opportunity to come and work in the classroom. While you are helping us out, you will have time to observe your child and learn more about his/her programming
