- The Alpert JCC enriches Jewish life by creating a neighborhood where shared Jewish experience is nurtured by people of all generations.
- Here, we celebrate culture and life, offering everyone recreation, arts, and education in a safe and healthy environment. The Early Childhood Education Department's many programs offer the perfect stepping stone for young families to become a part of "the neighborhood." Our program, a leader in Long Beach education for more than 40 years, is designed to develop the social, emotional, physical, and intellectual well-being of each child.
- We focus on creating a safe and nurturing environment which offers opportunities for exploration and discovery; a place where children learn to care about and cooperate with others as well as play independently.
- In order to share our Jewish culture and traditions, we enjoy Shabbat each Friday, celebrate Jewish holidays, and flavor our lessons with Jewish songs, stories and special foods.
- At the same time, we encourage understanding and sharing between families of many cultures.
- The curriculum is filled with developmentally academic activities, designed to provide an enriching first educational experience.
- We offer imaginative play, cooking, music, block building, math concepts, small and large motor skills, playground time and art.
- Based on recent brain research, a primary focus of our curriculum is on language development; each classroom provides a word-rich environment filled with stories, oral language activities, and exposure to more than one language.
- Our goal is to help children develop into confident individuals who are able to communicate their needs, solve problems, and resolve conflicts.
- By providing solid building blocks, we prepare each child for their educational future.
