Susan Sims Bodenstein Pre-School

My two daughters attend the preschool at Mishkon, my oldest has been there for three years, and my youngest is in her second year. Their experience has been overwhelmingly positive. The teachers and staff are nurturing and committed to their growth, both academically and emotionally. Because of this, my wife and I have witnessed so much development in our kids' confidence, social skills, and love of learning. We also appreciate Rabbi Josh's presence in the program, especially when he leads engaging holiday celebrations and finds opportunities for teaching moments through stories and songs for the kids. Beyond the classroom, my wife and I feel very connected to the other parents and staff at the school and synagogue. The synagogue in particular has created such a welcoming and inclusive environment. To us, this isn't just a preschool, it's a community, a family, and a place where our children have really thrived.

The preschool at Mishkon is a hidden neighborhood gem! It’s such a warm, welcoming and safe environment! All of the teachers and staff are amazing, the kids love them and love going to school to play with their friends. On top of that, the parent community is beyond anything we could have imagined. The kids and parents get together often for casual get togethers outside of school where everyone is welcome. We could not have picked a better school for our daughter to be nurtured and loved at. Oh! And Shabbat on the Beach in the summer is a blast! Don’t miss out!

Wonderful preschool with amazing teachers, tight knit parent community, thoughtful curriculum, and lots of outdoor time. The kids go on field trips, do yoga, have art, music, and gardening classes. My kiddo has thrived there. Also they have great hours for working parents 8:30-5pm, and start at 18 months.

My daughters have thrived at this preschool. It is such a special hidden gem, the teachers are so supportive and caring, so much so that my kids ask about them on the weekends.
