about Burr Cooperative
Burr Cooperative Nusery School was founded in 1983 as a non-profit cooperative organization by a group of dedicated parents striving to create a quality nursery school. Originally housed in Burr Elementary School, Burr Coop moved in 1989 to its current location at the United Parish of Auburndale church. The staff (a director and two teachers) consists of devoted, experienced teachers whose aim is to nurture the development of each child and to create an environment where children learn through experience.
Because we are a cooperative, parents are involved in all aspects of the school, as parent helpers in the classroom, and as members of committees or the board of directors.
Burr Cooperative is a small, caring school community. There are approximately 15-20 families at the school each year, with up to 16 children attending each day. Our adult to child ratio is approximately 1:5, which allows us to provide individual attention and to design curriculum and activities that meet children's individual interests and fascinations.
