Wesley Nursery School offers additional programs before and after regular program hours.  WNS is governed by the Wesley Nursery School Board and is certified by the Maryland State Board of Education.

WNS is committed to equal education opportunity and does not discriminate on the basis of race, sex, color, religion, or national origin in admission or treatment of students, or in the employment of faculty and administrative staff.
