Pixie Pre-School started in 1970 after the Spotswood Reformed Church constructed a new Education Building. Since the building would be unused during the week it was decided that since there was no pre-school in town, that this would be a wonderful match for the space. The original plan was to have one class of eighteen students, three mornings a week. Within a short time, the class was full and expanded to be five days per week, mornings and afternoons. Before the school opened in September of that year, it was necessary to employ another teacher and aid for another class room. Within two years there were four classrooms in use and the school was open five days a week with morning and afternoon sessions.

A few years later, a second site was needed to accommodate all of the children who were registered. A second location was found in East Brunswick at Trinity Presbyterian Church. Eventually, the school grew to over 500 students in morning and afternoon classes.

In the 1990s, with more and more demand for all day child care, the school began all day classes for three and four year olds with before and after care. A natural out growth of this was the establishment of a Kindergarten in the Church annex in Spotswood and a summer program. Pixie is now open year round and accommodates children two years to six years of age with bussing available to the surrounding area. The school has always prided itself in having certified teachers and a well trained staff, with low turnover. Pixie Pre-School and Kindergarten has now been open for over 40 years, maintaining high standards with an excellent educational base.
