Our director and teaching staff are carefully chosen. There are competent, caring and qualified teachers in every classroom. Our teachers build warm relationships with families that foster learning and enable an easier adjustment to the school situation. We employ a wide variety of teaching techniques and methods from "Back to Basics" to the newest in modern teaching ideas and strategies. Our teachers are continually learning through in-service training given by various educational and Judaic organizations. We are also CPR certified.
Our staff has been given training by the Bensalem Police & Fire Department regarding the safety of our students, our building and ourselves.
Our staff provides constructive and planned programs in terms of the needs of each child. A well-balanced program of indoor and outdoor activities is provided. Morning and afternoon sessions are divided into free play, clean up, snack, teacher-organized activities, rest and activity periods, messy play (sand, water, paint, glue, playdoh, clay and modeling), manipulative play (puzzles, sewing, shapes, building blocks), and quiet (with a wide selection of books).
During late care hours, along with our adult supervisors, we also employ high school and college students to "stay and play" with our after school children. |
Policies and procedures are in place at the Judy Sare Nursery School for security, safety and well-being of each child entrusted to our care. We believe that your child's learning experience is maximized when he/she feels safe and secure.
At the Judy Sare Nursery School we have installed a state-of-the-art security system. This consists of a front door keypad, several television monitors, and audio connections through our phone system. The doors are kept locked or physically manned during school hours. The keypad code is available to staff members and synagogue personnel and is changed periodically. All others wishing access to the building must ring the doorbell. You will then be viewed by our office, school and/or maintenance staff via the television monitors and either be buzzed in or asked for identification. Throughout the building, we have also installed peepholes in every classroom door so that we can see out. All classrooms have numbers on the windows and doors, inside and out, for easy identification by police, if needed. |
