Full Day Program

Our Early Childhood full day program is inspired by the Reggio Emilia Approach, guided by the Connecticut Early Learning and Development Standards and rooted in Jewish values and tradition. Through a multi-age model, we celebrate the uniqueness of each child and respect individual differences in learning styles and growth patterns. We understand that children thrive socially, emotionally and intellectually when provided with a developmentally appropriate and nurturing environment. Teachers support and facilitate children’s interests and passions.
