Temple Beth Sholom Preschool offers programs for families seeking top quality Jewish education for their young children starting at two weeks old through Kindergarten.
The total preschool experience provides a strong Judaic program integrated with an innovative, developmentally appropriate early childhood curriculum.
Our goal is to give our children the foundations to become independent, confident, and inquisitive learners.
During the year, the children will grow Jewishly, socially, emotionally, physically, and intellectually through rich and challenging experiences in living and learning with others.
These growths will happen when a child is presented with a happy, fun-filled and loving environment.
