Early Childhood

Welcome to the Early Childhood Division of The Abraham Joshua Heschel School. Our program reflects our deep respect for children and provides a warm and nurturing environment for our youngest students. Guided by our understanding how children learn best, we provide many opportunities for children to interact with people and materials, so they become inquisitive learners. We strive as well to cultivate each child's Jewish identity through daily prayers, blessings, and the celebration of Shabbat and holidays.

The Early Childhood program encompasses Nursery, Pre-Kindergarten, and Kindergarten. Each class has three teachers as well as specialists in the arts.The children's day is scheduled to reflect their need for a balance between active and quiet times; indoor and outdoor playtime, time for children to select their own activities, and time for teacher-directed activities.

We invite you to visit the school and learn more about our program.
