A child's experiences during the preschool years influence later development and outlook toward learning. Sandra Lane Nursery School is committed to our goal of helping each child develop a positive self-image. We provide many opportunities for accomplishmen

t, in offering a variety of materials, a safe and appealing environment in which to work and play, and encouragement for the child to proceed at his/her own pace. As the child gains confidence in his/her abilities, he/she will also better the social interactions with peers and the adults in his/her life. The staff is here to facilitate the child's success in developing creativity, building a healthy self-concept, and acquiring self-direction. We intend to promote a sense of wonder and curiosity, to fuel the child's enthusiasm for learning about his/her world. We offer the opportunity for individual activities and participation in small groups. We suggest daily outdoor experiences to use large muscles
and develop those skills, as well as to learn about - and interact with- the outdoor environment. Our school is located in a quiet, residential neighborhood. The two classrooms are located on the first floor and large windows overlook the spacious, grassy playground.

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of one of our wonderful teachers at Sandra Lane Nursery School. Kathy “Miss Kay” Kachichian passed away peacefully on August 13. To say she was kind-hearted, caring, passionate, and loving is an understatement. Her students meant the world to her. In her 25 years at Sandra Lane, she has touched the hearts of many children and parents. At Sandra Lane, we were not simply co-teachers, but a family. Miss Kay will be forever missed and loved.

Since we closed Sandra Lane, I decided to take some of the best loved activities to Colombia so the children in a rural school can enjoy them. They don’t have such things. But alas their needs are far greater than a lack of educational activities. But this helped put a smile on their faces. To celebrate our relationship of four years, we painted a mural together.

Today was the day. We said goodbye to our very last classes before shutting our doors for good. What a blessed 29 years it has been serving the Reading community in this way. I have so many memories (many stored safely organized in a box I will take with me)! Thank you to all our families. You will be missed.

What an awesome time it was this afternoon seeing so many alums and their parents. The place was packed inside and out. There were kids we had only a few years ago and young adult "kids" who are about to go to college, or are in, or just graduated from college!! Old photos came out and new photos were taken. Hoping some of you will post them for us to enjoy!

Thank you, Laura, for sharing such a wonderful post!  We love hearing about our Sandra Lane Alums! 😊

As many of you know, we are closing our school in a few weeks. We have enjoyed the 38 years we've served young children in Reading and beyond. We have decided to hold a brief walk through open house on Wednesday, June 5 from 1-2pm. Many of the teachers who have taught here will be hanging around, so stop by. We have a class that day which ends at 1pm so the open house will begin after those children are dismissed. Sandra Lane

On June 14, 2019 after 37 years, the Sandra Lane Nursery School will be closing its doors. We have served so many families over the years and loved every minute of it. Elizabeth Horn opened the school in the early 1980's and I took over in 1990. We believed in providing a safe and stimulating environment focusing on social and emotional development. We used academics in fun ways so foster a love of learning in our children. We will continue to do so through June and currently enrolled children will get some extra love and attention from us as we move through the months ahead. Thank you to all our families, we truly love you! Deb Adams, Director as well as Miss Kathleen, Miss Kim, Miss Michelle and Miss Barbara
