Philosophy
Monona Grove Nursery School (MGNS) is, "a perfect place to learn and play." Since it's founding in 1958, MGNS has been in continuous operation providing young children a relaxed atmosphere where they can grow socially, emotionally, physically and intellectually. The school is state licensed and accredited.

A Parent Cooperative Preschool
MGNS functions as a parent cooperative. An all volunteer parent board guides the decision making process. As a member of a parent co-op, each parent spends 2 or 3 days each semester helping in their child's classroom. That precious time in the classroom is such a positive experience for both parents and children, many parents request to spend additional time in the classroom!

Lunch Bunch
Our Lunch Bunch program allows preschool children the opportunity to bring their lunch to school and have additional time for socialization while eating.

Toddler Time (Ages 0-3)
We offer Toddler Time as a way to gently introduce young children to the preschool environment, without having to separate from a parent/caregiver. Toddler Time also gives parents/caregivers an opportunity to meet and socialize with one another.
