About Us

Educational Statement

Children of various backgrounds and faiths are very much part of, and welcomed into this program, as we can all benefit from learning about others, our similarities and differences. Our beautiful diversity is what makes our school so special. Through a variety of hands on experiences, themes and units are based on the Jewish holidays as well as Shabbat celebrations. Our overall curriculum is based on the Pennsylvania State Standards for Early Learning.

Philosophy

Our program is designed to nurture the inquisitive, outgoing spirit of children. Our primary goal is to create an environment for the child to explore with members of his/her peer group, to develop facilities in dealing with his/her world, and to promote self-esteem. All activities are planned to meet these goals and are geared toward the child's demonstrated interests.
