Preschool Program

 

December is an exciting month at Temple Shalom Preschool.  We all participate in our annual toy collection. This year the toys will be donated to the Shelter for Abused Women.  It is very special to see a young child bring a brand new toy and put it in a box to be given away.  It is never too early to learn that giving is as important as receiving. Our school wide celebration of Chanukah will be Wednesday, December 20th. The children and families will participate in a Chanukah sing- a- long with their families and friends. Classrooms will be decorated and dreidle games will be enjoyed by all.  The hallways will be filled with the smell of latkes.     A well deserved rest will be enjoyed by the staff.  School reopens on January 8.  We wish all of our families at Temple Shalom a Happy Chanukah and Happy New Year.     11/06       TEMPLE SHALOM PRE-SCHOOL EARNS NATIONAL ACCREDITATION! Temple Shalom Pre-School has earned accreditation from the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) – the nation’s leading organization of early childhood professionals.   NAEYC created its accreditation program in 1985 to set professional standards for early childhood education, and to help families identify high-quality child care and early education programs. Accreditation has become a widely recognized sign of high quality in early childhood education programs.  By earning such accreditation, Temple Shalom’s Pre-School has become a leader in a national effort to raise the quality of early childhood education.   Mazel Tov to Preschool Director, Dr. Jean Nikovits, Preschool Committee Chair, Wallie Lenchner, and the outstanding staff of the Temple Shalom Preschool for this accomplishment!  Kol Hakavod!
