The preschool offers a prime opportunity for young children to thrive in a joyful environment that becomes a positive first school experience. Curriculum is rich in child-centered projects that focus on the many interests brought forward by the children and teachers, and incorporates celebrations of Jewish holidays and our rich culture. Through playful encounters with each other, loving teachers, materials, music, movement and literature, children develop their creativity, intelligence and skills in getting along with others. The school strives to create an environment in which families from diverse backgrounds feel comfortable exploring early childhood and Jewish heritage, growing together in a supportive community.
