What Parents Say
Congregation Netivot Shalom's preschool is praised for its inclusive, welcoming community that celebrates diversity across age, race, ability, gender, and sexual orientation. Parents highlight the quality Jewish curriculum, beautiful facilities, consistent and caring staff with low turnover, and intentional social justice values. The community is described as participatory, egalitarian, and open-minded.
Five stars for an absolutely excellent community. There is a huge diversity of age, color, physical ability, gender, sexual orientations, and community participation. It is a participatory, egalitarian service lead by community members and their caring, intelligent, and funny rabbi. As someone who grew up in the Conservative movement, it feels like going home - if my Jewish home was a place of social justice and constant intentionality. They have the best regularly practicing young adult communities in the East Bay that I've found. I highly recommend.
The preschool is amazing, the community is wonderful. As a staff member of the preschool for many years, I couldn't reccomend it enough. Beautiful spaces, consistent teachers (very little turnover), and an age appropriate Jewish curriculum woven into every classroom. It's a delightful and diverse place, all people of different religious beliefs, races, sexual orientations, genders, ages, etc welcome.
Amazing community. Open minded and accepting. Great Jewish traditions.
