Adath Jeshurun

Preschool Edu­ca­tion

The Adath Jeshu­run preschool edu­cates chil­dren from 14 months of age through age 5. Adath Jeshu­run is one of the only a few preschools in North Amer­ica to receive the pres­ti­gious United Syn­a­gogue Solomon Schecter Award for excel­lence in early child­hood edu­ca­tion. Our pro­gram is licensed by the Ken­tucky Cab­i­net for Human Resources. Our student-teacher ratios are lower than the state min­i­mum require­ments. All of our staff receive first aid and CPR training.

AJ stu­dents learn critical-thinking problem-solving and rea­son­ing through water play, dra­matic arts, cre­ative art projects and block-building. They develop shar­ing and plan­ning skills by choos­ing activ­i­ties in class­room cen­ters. They learn to express feel­ings and thoughts through song, move­ment, draw­ing, paint­ing, and other media. And, they build con­fi­dence and respect for self and oth­ers by observ­ing how their teach­ers treat them, and by treat­ing oth­ers with the same respect and dignity.
