Tender Roots is located in North Arlington, in Lyon Village.  We opened our doors in 2006 to a packed open house.  It was clear the neighborhood needed a community school.

The vision for the program is based on four concepts:

1. The Child-Parent/Caregiver relationship facilitates exploration and learning, while simultaneously meeting young children’s needs for intimacy and security.
2. A parent cooperative offers the optimal means for delivering an interactive education.
3. A geographically-targeted program helps to foster a deep sense of community and create a nurturing, neighborhood network that supports progressive education.
4. The creation and continuing development of a Reggio Emilia inspired program for toddlers offers families exposure to the highest regarded form of early childhood education.
