Thank you for your interest in the Children’s Garden Center (CGC) at Temple Beth Abraham. We know that there are many options out there for your child’s first school experience and we are excited for you and your child to explore our ‘school family’.
Children are natural explorers and play is their work as they seek out new knowledge while making brilliant discoveries. In a creative, stimulating atmosphere, children will become aware of the exciting world around them. If they are given a chance to learn through their own experience, these discoveries have real meaning for them.
Our experienced teachers arrive eager each day, ready to work with the children to co-construct curriculum that sparks a sense of wonder and creativity in each of them. We are Reggio-inspired and we believe in active learning and understand that play is ‘the highest form of research’. Thishands-on, experiential learning enables our children to develop new skills, enhance their strengths, and work on their individual goals in a comfortable and safe environment that is familiar to them.
Our hope is for our students to foster a love of schoo before they embark on their journeys as confident, life-long learners.
Please explore our program offerings and be in touch should you have any questions. We look forward to getting to know your family.
With Gratitude;
Melissa McHugh, M.E.D
Educational Director, Children’s Garden Center
