Early Childhood Division

The goal of our Early Childhood Education Program is to foster Jewish values and to develop enthusiasm and a love of our beautiful heritage.  The Program's objectives are to encourage independence and a positive, happy self image.  Skills development, through the use of educational material enhance language, reasoning, and motor skills.

Our program, licensed by the State of Ohio, is designed to make our children’s entry into school a positive, exciting, enthusiastic one. We do this by providing a warm, secure environment with many experiences that assure each child success, and an integrated approach combining a vast amount of Yiddishkeit with art, music, movement, dramatic play, science, math, language and cognitive activities. Since these early years are crucial in forming a child’s self-image, we use much specific praise to reinforce any positive behaviors and to make each of our children feel special. We concentrate on developing the “whole” child, socially and emotionally, linguistically, cognitively, and physically. We take each child from the level at which he is and encourage constant growth through providing challenging and age appropriate activities that both encourage a questioning mind and increase knowledge and skills. Above all we want our children to love school, to run to do a Mitzvah, and to be a lifelong Torah learner.

Our dedicated, talented staff, many of whom have been teachers for at least five years, some more than twenty, attend yearly early childhood workshops to increase their teaching skills and keep them knowledgeable of the most current, successful preschool philosophies and techniques.
