The San Anselmo Co-Op Nursery School is a non-profit, non-sectarian organization, owned and administered by the parents. The school was founded in Fairfax in June 1947 as the Fairfax Community Nursery School. In 1963, the school, now known as the San Anselmo Co-Operative Nursery School, purchased the current property at 24 Myrtle Lane, finally acquiring the permanent home the administrators had so long desired.
