A Play-Based Curriculum Infused With Traditional And Jewish Values

Aligned with Arizona’s early learning standards, our unique curriculum is individualized to each age and stage of development and built on a foundation of Jewish traditions and values. As your child explores math, literacy, and science, they celebrate festivals, study Hebrew, and learn about traditions.

Community Immersion For A Whole-Family Sense Of Belonging

Our connection to the East Valley Jewish Community Center brings the whole family together with diverse programming that infuses art, culture, and heritage into all-age activities. We encourage collaboration with parents as we foster compassion, model respect, and teach responsibility through a Jewish lens.
