Meet Filiberto! He started learning
to swim less than a year ago,
after a traumatic experience in
childhood steered him away from
the water for decades.
In honor of April’s National Adult
Learn to Swim Month, Filiberto
explains why he decided to take
the plunge at JCCindy.org/blog.

Early Childhood Education
Jewish Value of the Month
Each month, the J's Early Childhood Education (ECE) program focuses on a different Jewish value to incorporate
into classroom lesson plans and share with families.
February's value: Ahavah (Love)
• Many classrooms had parties to celebrate friendship
• The Osher Pre-K classroom focused on ways to be kind at home and at school
• Some North Wing classrooms celebrated all the reasons they love their students

Join the ECE Team!

     “I love the
     diversity and
     the parent
     support.”
