New York (State). Education Dept. Division of Vocational and Extension Education.

Emergency nursery schools were established upstate in February 1934 under the Civil Works Administration and continued with Temporary Emergency Relief Administration funds from April 1934 to December 1935. At that time the project was transferred to the Works Progress Administration. Emergency parent education classes were conducted in conjunction with many of these nursery schools. The Education Department also obtained a number of part time clerical and other employees with TERA funding beginning in 1933.
