Philosophy



Our Early Childhood Department seeks to foster the love of learning in children and to promote in each child a sense of Jewish self.


Our warm, nurturing environment exposes children to a rich curriculum of reading, mathematics, science, art, technology, Jewish culture, and Hebrew language.



Program Goals

The goals of the Early Childhood Program are reinforced through creative play, group instruction, and hands-on activities.

  • Creating a safe, loving and predictable environment

  • Fostering independence that empowers children and promotes self-esteem

  • Using a hands-on approach to include individual learning styles

  • Promoting strong Jewish values and identity

  • Developing language skills in English and Hebrew
