| Mission Statement Our goal is to nourish each child’s sense of self-worth, while enhancing his/her ability to relate to others. We, the parents, children and teacher, come together to form a community that acknowledges social and artistic development, striving to achieve an enriched introduction to education that will last a lifetime. About US Our school was founded in 1972 as a cooperative because parents wanted to be involved with the education of their preschoolers. Parents form the Association, which operates the school through its Executive Board and Committees. Our teacher, Janet Durgin, has been teaching for the Portland Nursery School (PNS) since 1993. Janet’s expertise in working with families is clearly displayed daily. She has a wonderful rapport with children and family and is a positive role model for the initial school experience.
