We’re a Community
The Barbara and Jack Kay Early Childhood Learning Center focuses on welcoming children and their families into a quality educational experience based on Jewish values. Children are encouraged to develop as individuals while creating an inclusive community that welcomes all races, religions, and cultural backgrounds.
We’re One-of-a-Kind
Our state-of-the-art school is located on the beautiful, secure 16-acre Mandel JCC campus. Your child will benefit from an environment that offers weekly lessons in our outdoor swimming pool, as well as fosters learning and movement utilizing our sports field, indoor gymnasium, and playgrounds. Plus, we have an outdoor courtyard where we often host Shabbat and other holiday celebrations.
We’re Flexible
We know every family’s schedule is different and that situations can change unexpectedly. Our staff takes pride in their ability to adapt to the changing needs of each child and to accommodate working schedules with our before- and aftercare options.
We’re Committed
When you join the Kay Early Childhood Learning Center, you are an essential part of our community and we are committed to engaging your entire family. From our warm and caring teachers to top-rate communication via weekly narratives and photos reflecting the week’s activities – plus a dynamic and professional administrative team, there’s a reason our families voted us “Best Preschool” in Palm Beach County.
