The Neighborhood School and The Unschool, which have been housed since the fall of 1972 in Grace Church, are merging their programs this year. The combined program (which will be called The Neighborhood School) will serve 50 children aged 4 to 10 from the Skinker-DeBaliviere area. Dede Conghlin is “now the school’s administrator: Ann Manganaro and Martha McNamara coordinate the program for 4 to 6 year olds. Kurt Lorenz, Nancy Nonnenkamp, and John Cornillon teach the 7 to 10 year old group. Cathy Dolan directs the school’s art program.
This summer The Neighborhood School sponsored a six-week program for a group of 2 and 3 year old children. The program concentrated on increasing the children’s language and communications skills. Three students from the Providence Group Home for girls served as aids in working with the children.
