Visiting schools is a great way to learn about them, and NPN Playdates make it fun for your whole family. They are a perfect way to spend time inside a school, meet teachers and staff, and learn about what makes each school unique. You will also meet other families, enjoy a fun morning of play, and enjoy a cup of coffee you didn't have to make! Even if you aren't looking for a school, it's a nice way to enjoy the morning. We hope you'll join us!
Preschool Playdates are for children under five and at least one parent. Screenless Saturdays are for elementary or middle-school children and at least one parent. These events are for families, they are not drop-off events.
