GANON GIL PRESCHOOL MISSION STATEMENT
Ganon Gil is the only area preschool and kindergarten to pilot JCC Association's An Ethical Start™ curriculum, which uses selected teachings of Pirke Avot (lessons of our fathers) to teach Jewish values and ethics. An Ethical Start has materials for parents, teachers and children, including a professionally recorded CD, a family participation guide, illustrated children's books and a wonderful character named Peer K™. Explorer, who is the children's guide to Pirke Avot. 

GANON GIL OFFERS THE FOLLOWING OPTIONS: 

Mazel Tots
A class for children who turn two years old between September and December of the school year. The class begins in September and runs through mid-June.
