It takes a village…

The saying, 'It takes a village to raise a child', is so true and we are one lucky family to have Har Shalom be part of our village! The teachers and support staff at the ECC have created a loving, nurturing, and safe environment where our child can grow and develop important skills. It is difficult being a working parent, but when our child wakes each morning asking if it’s a school day, excited to see his teachers and friends, it makes drop off so much easier!

After having visited literally every preschool in the Potomac-Bethesda-Rockville area, we settled on Har Shalom because of the warmth of the teachers, the nurturing atmosphere and the fun the children were so obviously having on the day we visited. We have not regretted our decision, and our second child is now in the Frogs class and thoroughly enjoying himself! He pleads to stay later when it's time to go, and comes home interested and curious, eager to tell me what he has learned and show me the things he has been doing. Not only are the teachers really dedicated during school hours, they also give up their free time to attend after hours events, which my kindergartener still looks forward to attending because he will get to see the great friends he made at preschool. The Har Shalom community has become the center of our family life, and we are so glad to be a part of it and to be able to support its wonderful preschool.

The environment is the perfect place to grow and develop!

We are so fortunate that we found such a safe, engaging, nurturing environment for our toddler here at the Sherman ECC. Your attention to child centered details, such as purposeful continuity of teachers during the day, creativity geared toys in place of loud flash toys, and the careful selection of soothing and neutral colors both indoors and outdoors (we love the brand new, nature inspired, playground) speaks volumes to how you designed such a fantastic program! In addition to the wonderful preschool, you have offered us an amazing community of...

It’s more than just a school, it’s a community!

The ECC is more than just the school, it is a community. It is an environment where all children thrive with the support of their teachers and incredible staff members. There are so many community events that welcome all families, whether parents or grandparents or extended members. Having these events has made such a positive impact in the lives of my children. We look forward to being part of the ECC for many years to come, we can’t imagine being anywhere else! Ryan and Amanda Kaiser

We love the wide variety of activities for our toddler!

The Sherman ECC is the first school our son attended and we couldn't be happier. Starting at just 18 months old, he was able to participate in a wide variety of activities: cooking, painting, singing, reading, and dancing, often in the context of Jewish holidays and rituals. The teachers, who are incredibly supportive and loving, built a curriculum that simultaneously allows for structured and creative play. We look forward to 3 more wonderful years here!
