Program Overview
The goal of the Albert & Temi Horowitz CKids After School Club is for children to enjoy participating in songs, games, incentives, arts and crafts, celebrations, and other exciting co-curricular activities so that they leave each day with positive feelings and fond memories in a safe, caring and warm Jewish environment. A variety of age-appropriate supervised games, sports, arts and crafts, and enrichment opportunities will be offered, as well as healthy snacks, scheduled homework/study/reading time and opportunities to socialize with peers.
Space is Limited! Upon electronic receipt of registration inquiry, forms will be reviewed in order to determine availability in the program. An email will be sent informing of availability.
Our Philosophy
We Believe:
- That loving, trusting, and respecting each child makes that child capable of loving, trusting and respecting others.
- That each child should be guided and encouraged to have a positive self-image.
- That children need a nurturing, safe and happy environment which promotes their natural curiosity and desire to learn.
- That children explore the world around them by using their senses.
- That children should have creative teachers that encourage self-expression in a safe and nurturing environment.
- That our educators serve as role models, to encourage the children to respect one another.
