B’nai Tikvah Nursery School Mission Statement

At B’nai Tikvah Nursery School we nurture the uniqueness of every individual child. We recognize that play is a child’s primary modality of learning. Our developmental program is hands-on and uses a child-centered curriculum. We teach the whole child: emotionally, socially, physically, cognitively, and spiritually.

We create an environment that fosters independent exploration, curiosity and creativity. Our nurturing teachers encourage critical thinking skills, teach problem-solving and build self-esteem. Jewish and universal values are at the core of our program, building a caring community and instilling a love of learning.
