   CREATING A LOVE OF LEARNING
    YEAR BY YEAR
    Imagine your child learning in a positive environment filled
    with exploration and excitement. At the Milton & Betty Katz
    JCC Early Childhood Program your child will step in to a
    world of wonder. A placewhere learning is experienced
    in a warm, safe, nurturing environment with activities that
    will lay the foundation for all their fu-ture growth and
    development. At the JCC children enjoy a programrich in art,
    literacy, movement, math and science. Special activities
    inphysical education, music, nature, swim and Jewish
    celebrations round out your child's experience. The JCC is
    open to everyone in the community.

   INFANT AND TODDLER PROGRAM
   For our youngest learners, our experienced staffs create
    an environment that is safe, warm and secure. Our infants
    explore attheir own pace: eating when they are hungry,
    sleeping when they are tired and playing when they feel
    active. Our toddlers begin to learn about being part of a
    group by participating in structured activities with
    their friends.

   EARLY CHILDHOOD PROGRAM
    At the JCC we celebrate our terrific twos. Twos
    are especially active and beginning to assert their
    independence. Our child-centered curriculum supports this
    special time in your child’slife as well as offering weekly
    special programming.

   PRESCHOOL PROGRAMS
    Our teachers will capture your child’s natural curiosity and     desire to learn by providing learning experiences and     challengesthat are appropriate to each individual. In our     classrooms, the curriculum overflows with pre-reading and     pre-writing activities.

   FULL DAY KINDERGARTEN NEW!!!
    Our program will follow approved New Jersey Curriculum
    standardsand will be staffed by teachers certified to teach
    Kindergarten inNew Jersey. The philosophy of the Katz
    JCC Early Childhood Program has its basis in a humanistic
    view of the child as an independent and individual learner.
    The classroom will be bubbling with learning, exploration,
    discovery, movement, ques-tions, answers and lots of
    family involvement, along with an introduction to Hebrew.

    forefront ofearly childhood education in Atlantic County.
