Click to read: PA first to integrate Keyboard Town PALS keyboarding program

Caroline is a Homeschooling Mom in a Military Family who just LOVES Keyboard Town PALS! Read her fabulous review!

“Keyboard Town Pals taught my 9 year old daughter to keyboard in just one hour (really!). Best of all, my 75 year old father did it too. We followed the program as directed and did lesson one on day one and lesson two on day two. We did it again the following day and the rest is history; she has never looked back. My father is now a believer and devotee of the Keyboard Town Pals method. The story is easy to understand, easy to follow, and the methodical nature of the program allowed it to be memorized and immediately put to use. This keyboarding program is a winner!”

EXCLUSIVE PRE SCHOOL OPENS ITS DOORS IN THE PACIFIC PALISADES

LITTLE MACCABEES OFFERS A COMPLETE EARLY CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCE
IN AN INTIMATE SETTING

For immediate release, Monday, June 01, 2009: Limited enrollment has begun for the Little Macabees preschool, which will open its doors in September for the very first time. A new project of the Palisades Jewish Early Childhood Center (PJECC), Little Macabees offers a warm environment where children can develop socially, emotionally, intellectually, and physically in an exclusive Jewish setting.

Little Macabees was originally conceived as a temporary facility that would remain open in the interim while permanent facilities were secured for the PJECC. However, the concept of an additional smaller preschool began to prove necessary to Chabad’s growing family base.

“There are simply more Jewish families moving to the Palisades these days,” says Rabbi Zushe Cunin, Director of the Chabad Jewish Community Center. “We want to provide parents with as many options for their children as possible. We have discovered that the Little Macabees preschool will serve a need for children who require a smaller environment in which they can learn.”

Ms. Barbara Leibovic, PJECC Director, is equally as excited. “When Rabbi Cunin and I presented the idea of a smaller, temporary preschool to the staff and parents, the feedback was surprising. We heard, ‘Why temporary? My child does better in a smaller setting.’ and ‘This would be would be ideal for the Mommy and Me program!’ Everyone is excited and ready to help provide an incredible unique early childhood learning experience.”

“We have our best teachers on board for next year.” explains Ms. Leibovic. “We also have a wonderful and developmentally appropriate curriculum planned for the children.”

Once the PJECC moves into its permanent facility, it will be able to accommodate over 70 children. Alternatively, Little Macabees will cater to 28 children (14 per session) in its charming and intimate home based facility.
