The JCC remains vigilant about safety and has taken proactive steps that are both visible and not visible to community members out of an abundance of caution. We are thankful to our community for complying with security.
The Saul and Carole Zabar Nursery School at the Marlene Meyerson JCC Manhattan is a progressive, Reggio Emilia-inspired nursery school that embraces families from all backgrounds. Jewish values and traditions are interwoven into everything we do. Our teaching approach welcomes all types of learners, celebrating the diversity and uniqueness of each individual in our community. We honor one of our core Jewish values, B’tzelem Elohim (we are all created in the image of God).
At the Saul and Carole Zabar Nursery School, we nurture the whole child by fostering emotional intelligence, empathy, and resilience. Through our Reggio Emilia-inspired approach, children develop a strong sense of self, build meaningful relationships, and learn to express their thoughts and feelings with confidence.
We support each child’s learning, their connections with one another, their achievements, and their points of view by making their work visible through many forms of documentation, ensuring that they reach developmental milestones and master the academic skills necessary for continuing their educational journey.
The nursery school embraces and welcomes families from all backgrounds as we cultivate a connection to Jewish values and tradition. We offer children many experiences that foster empathy with others, and encourage students to make a positive imprint on their world.
We believe that each child’s learning is enhanced by the diversity of learning styles in their classroom. All learners have a place at The Saul and Carole Zabar Nursery School.
