Welcome to the Arnstein Jewish Community Center Preschool. Since 1956 the AJCC has provided the Jewish Community, as well as the Knoxville community at large, with the opportunity to send their children to a rich learning environment within the cozy confines of this Jewish Center. The tradition continues as we constantly strive to improve the form and content of our school, with the help of our preschool families, the staff and members of the community who support this endeavor. Thanks to all who care deeply about this school for your continued commitment.

Our Philosophy

Our "hands on" approach to learning incorporates experimentation and discovery as basic tools for growth. It is the goal of our professional staff to instill in the children a sense of self-worth and pride, and to foster the children's love of learning.

Each child is treated as an individual and is encouraged to help develop his/her sense of responsibility, curiosity, independence, self-control, and social skills.

 

 

 

 

 

  Children Served

The Early Childhood Program serves children 16 months through 5 years of age. Children are placed in classes according to their birthday as of September 30 of each academic year. The children remain in the same class with the same group of children throughout the entire year and move to a new class the following September. Exceptions are made based on developmental observations and assessments made by the preschool director in conjunction with teacher and parent input.
