Edward & Thelma Glantz Early Childhood Learning Center

We offer full-time programs for infants through VPK. Our learning framework, community garden, ongoing parent communication, and integration of music, physical education, and Jewish celebration are just a few of the elements that separate us from other preschools. Come tour our facility and find out why we are considered a school of excellence.

The Constance & David Blacher Children's Special Needs Program

We believe that every child can succeed, every child can participate and every child can make friends! There are programs for all ages and ability levels!

Club J

Discover for yourself why our afterschool program is the coolest club around! Now offering pickup from Ben Gamla Charter and bus transportation from Coral Reef, Hagen Road, Manatee, and Sunset Palms!
