Hey-lo-di-o-do, Alumni
The heart of
our community
Each and every family that enters through our doors becomes part of our treasured community. Whether you worked in the classroom, played in the classroom, attended NVNS for several years, or your stay was shorter – we hope you’ll stay connected through our NVNS alumni network and join us for annual community events.
Napa Valley Nursery School 2025 Annual Fund Drive
Your donation today helps solidify our school's tomorrow
The 2025 Annual Fund campaign is now live! This year is a bit different than prior years as we were tasked with the great responsibility of beginning our school relocation journey. This year we’re seeking to raise $200,000. This money will go directly to the school in two specific ways. First, it helps us to pay our incredible director and staff, purchase basic supplies, and fund scholarships that ensure we remain accessible to all children, regardless of family income. Second, funds raised over our basic needs will go towards our rehoming effort as we embark on all the costs – large and small – that go into this massive effort.
Thank you for helping Napa Valley Cooperative Nursery School stay magical this year – and for generations to come. Your support ensures our critical program, Napa’s only early education play-based parent-led cooperative, continues to inspire connection between self and the outside world, and a deep love of learning in both our students and the grown-ups guiding them. Every dollar makes a difference to our school, our children, and their foundation of early learning.
Each of you, our incredible community of current and alumni families, plays an integral part in ensuring we reach our goal so that NVNS remains a staple in Napa for generations of families to come, as it has been for nearly 80 years.
