The Early Childhood Center at Adath Emanu-el

Welcome to the Adath Emanu- EL Early Childhood Center. For over forty years our school has been a leader in providing quality early childhood education. Our hours now include before and aftercare and our new Extended Day program provides enhanced enrichments for our students. We are delighted and excited to include you and your child as part of our school family.

We believe that our early childhood program is unique. Through careful planning, the use of an integrated play based curriculum, and flexible scheduling we strive to meet the different individual needs of our children and their families. Our low teacher- child ratios and warm, family friendly certified staff enable us to provide a nurturing environment sensitive to the needs of your child. Our modern facility has large sunny classrooms, indoor and outdoor play areas that invite children to explore and discover their ever expanding world.

Our preschool and Pre K programs are based upon a core – day preschool program that utilizes developmentally appropriate activities to encourage children to explore their expanding world. The philosophy behind our curriculum is that children learn best by doing. Our children participate in many exciting areas, which allow for individual creativity and academic growth such as cooking, creative arts, music, science, dramatic play, fitness, early literacy, writing, math, computers, and outdoor/ gross motor play as well as a special focus on the holidays, Torah and Judaic values.
