What Makes Us Different?
Our Philosophy and Commitment. Our Staff. Our Program.
These are just a few of the factors that make Silverman Preschool such an exemplary Early Childhood Education facility for children 18 months to 5 years of age. Please Note: Children do not need to be toilet trained to enroll in our preschool program. We invite you to come and meet our fine teachers and see for yourself what sets our school apart from all the others.
Our Philosophy & Our Commitment
With the opportunity to experience a “hands-on” approach to life and learning, your child will receive the best in Early Childhood Education. Silverman Preschool is dedicated to providing a comprehensive and nurturing program, with outstanding teachers in a warm, loving environment. While helping each child to discover his or her individuality, we also build an awareness of being part of the larger community. In an atmosphere rich in Jewish heritage and tradition, we offer your child endless opportunities for growth and expression. We welcome you to Silverman Preschool, where the joy of life and learning is celebrated every day! The skills developed under this philosophy will serve your child for a lifetime.
Our Staff
All of our teachers are fully trained in Early Childhood Education, and each staff member meets state licensing requirements. Above all, staff members are chosen for their dedication and sensitivity to the well being of young children.
Our Program
Music: Music is an integral part of the preschool’s curriculum with a music specialist attending each class weekly. In addition, Rabbi Rosenthal joins the children and the parent participation classes on Fridays with his accordion to bring the Shabbat songs to life.
After School Enrichment: After School Enrichment programs are offered on a regular basis, such as Mad Science, Perk Club (a physical education program), Kindermusik, Sing ‘n’ Speak Spanish and Hebrew. Enrichment programs vary every session.
Meals and Snack: A nutritious snack is planned daily. Often the class bakes and prepares their own snacks. Inquire about our optional kosher hot lunch program.
Shabbat and Holiday Programs: Shabbat and Holidays familiarizes young children with synagogue life and experiences, helping them develop a warmth and understanding for Jewish home rituals and Holiday celebrations.
Special Guests: Special Guests are invited to bring the wonderful outside world to our curious preschools from the “Reptile man” to our local Police Officer and Mail Carrier.
Great Beginnings
A great beginning starts at Silverman Preschool with our “Oh Baby” program for children from birth to 12 months, accompanied by an adult and “First Steps” especially for children 13-24 months old. These two classes offer activities such as music and movement, art and stories, Shabbat sing-a-long with Rabbi Rosenthal, developmental discussions and speakers.
