At
Congregation Kol Tikvah we know that children are our most precious
resource. Our school, the Phylis J Green ECC, was founded on the belief
that the first few years of a child’s life provide the foundation for
all later social and cognitive development as well as build self-esteem
and a love for learning. We also know that our school is much more than
just a place for children to learn and grow; it’s part of a Jewish
community, a caring congregation and a loving family.
We’ve created a warm, positive and nurturing environment that enhances
our children’s emotional, intellectual, social, physical, moral,
creative and Judaic development. We recognize that every child is a
unique individual and allow each child to experiment, explore, create,
share and learn at his or her own pace. We maintain a small class size
and excellent student/teacher ratio to ensure the beliefs we were
founded on are maintained. As your children grow during their years at
Kol Tikvah, they are building a foundation based on love, friendship and
community. Walking through the doors will feel like coming home.
