School Notes

Active learning is the cornerstone to the educational approach of the FHJC Toddler Program, Free 3K and Pre-K for All, and our Stay & Play Program.
Children participate in exploratory activities that use all their senses to experience their world.
We provide a complete, well-balanced, general education. We also offer a rich Judaic curriculum for children in our Toddler class, and 3's and 4's optional Judaic Wrap Program.
Our educational methods encourage children to become confident, independent, responsible and creative thinkers. Language arts, science, music and math curriculum give our children a solid foundation for moving forward. Children are exposed to pre-reading activities on a daily basis.
Equally important as active learning is the development of interpersonal skills that helps ensure the productive years of learning that will lie ahead.

Children in our Toddler*(2's) Program are exposed to a rich Jewish learning environment. They will begin to develop communication, social, physical and problem-solving skills through a play-based learning experience. Sign up options include 9-12 for 3 or 5 days a week. Early drop off is available beginning at 7:45am, and aftercare extends until 5pm except for Fridays where aftercare ends at 2pm. The children staying past 12pm eat lunch, nap, have an afternoon snack, and continue to participate in exploratory activities that use all their senses to experience the world. Children in our 2s program receive priority seating in our 3K program.
We are a Department of Education approved free 3K and Pre-K for All program, and both programs are based on DOE approved curricula. Our 3K Program provides and environment for children to explore their world, gain a sense of independence, play with peers and build self-confidence. The 3K program runs from8:40am-3:00pm Monday-Thursday, and 8:20am-2:40pm on Fridays. Early drop off is available beginning at 7:45am, and aftercare extends until 6pm. Lunch is included. Registration for 3K takes place through the DOE website. Children in our 3's program receive priority seating in our Pre-K for All program.
In Pre-K, focus is placed on helping your child continue to develop their physical, social, emotional, language and literacy, math and cognitive skills. The PKA program runs from 9:20am-3:40pm Monday-Thursday, and 8:25am-2:45pm on Fridays. Registration for PKA takes place through the DOE website. Early drop off is available beginning at 7:45am for children enrolled in our Judaic wrap-around program, and aftercare extends until 6pm. Lunch is included.
In conjunction with our 3K and Pre-K program, we offer an optional Judaic wrap-around component that provides Jewish education for your child prior to the start of the day. Parshah, holidays, music, stories and projects are all incorporated throughout the year. Hours for our wrap program in 3K are 8am-8:40am Monday - Thursday, and in PreK from 8:20am-9:20am Monday-Thursday, and 8am-8:25am on Friday.
*At least one parent must be Jewish to enroll in our Toddler program.
