Register Now for Early Childhood Education Programs at Miami’s Three JCCs

The beginning of the 2023-2024 school year is only a few weeks away. Have you thought about how your youngest scholars will be spending their days? If you are looking for outstanding early childhood education programs rooted in Jewish values, tradition and culture, look no further than Miami’s three Jewish community centers (JCCs): Alper JCC Miami, Miami Beach JCC and Michael-Ann Russell JCC. Alper’s Glen Greenstein Early Childhood Preschool Program and MARJCC’s Early Childhood Academy are longtime fixtures in our local Jewish community and an integral part of both JCCs. This fall, the Miami Beach JCC will join the group with its new Early Childhood Academy for children 2-3 years old. Registration is now open for all three programs. Limited space is available, so act fast! Federation is a proud partner of our three Miami JCCs and allocates yearly funds from donations made to our Annual Federation/UJA Campaign.

Miami Beach JCC CEO Paul Frishman shared, “We are very proud to have recently completed a strategic planning process designed to help move us into the future. One of the highest priorities that emerged was the launch of our Early Childhood Academy, designed to meet the growing demands for pluralistic Jewish experiences among young families. We are extremely excited and have received tremendously positive feedback from the community already.”
