Early Childhood
In the Shalom Torah Academy Preschool, we create an atmosphere of warmth, love, and security that encourages each child to blossom and grow and maximize his or her potential. Skilled and caring teachers promote a love of learning, focusing on early literacy through fun-filled child-oriented English and Hebrew language curricula.
Nurturing The Mind, Body, And Soul Of Each Child
Through research-based instruction, children learn via play, absorbing knowledge and information. Center-based learning engages and stimulates the children, with the entire curriculum building a strong foundation of language and pre-math skills. By the time your child graduates Kindergarten, he or she will be reading and will possess a comprehensive set of math skills that will set him or her on a solid path for future success.
