Welcome to The Gan

The Gan Preschool provides an enriching early childhood learning experience for children aged 2.5 years through Kindergarten, as well as Moms and Tots classes for toddlers. Our core program runs from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM, with an option for pickup after lunch at 12:30pm. We offer options for extended afternoon care and early care.



We prioritize ensuring that every student is well-prepared for school. In addition to academic readiness, children have the opportunity to explore their Jewish heritage through various activities, including singing, dancing, painting, holiday cooking, storytelling, and imaginative play.



Each class also participates in our weekly special activities, which include Drama, Yoga, Hebrew, Dance, Karate, and Shabbat sing-alongs.
