Welcome to Wetherill!
Welcome to The Wetherill School! Our warm and nurturing early childhood and kindergarten environments have
been going strong for almost four decades. The Wetherill founders’ belief in incorporating the best practices
of the research and discoveries of several early childhood educators and philosophers into a rich, diverse, creative
curriculum that educates the whole child—cognitively, socially and emotionally, and physically—has been upheld
since 1976.
Our state certified teachers welcome children in this first school experience and help them explore
their world. Wetherill children learn through creative play using hands-on manipulative materials while learning
to express themselves through many different media. Our teachers are masters of honoring children’s sense of wonder
and guiding them toward self-discovery. Our secluded, peaceful location on a vast wooded property in Gladwyne
provides many opportunities for outdoor exploration as well. Please explore our website to learn more about our
philosophy and curriculum and contact us to arrange a visit. In the meantime take a
peek at a day at school here.
Back-to-school time can cause some separation jitters. Read this article for some sage advice on soothing
your child’s fears (and your own!)
