Temple Israel’s ECC is a NAEYC accredited, Reggio-inspired, diverse Jewish preschool where children and families build Jewish identity, culture, and values.

Our classrooms are full of music and play, exploring and trying, laughing and dancing, building and creating. Work and play are one in early childhood, so our classrooms are set up to be places where children make choices and engage in hands-on learning while our teachers enrich and extend their endeavors. Teachers reflect regularly to plan experiences that are geared toward the children’s needs, abilities and interests.

To learn more, contact ECC Director, Sharon Rosenberg-Scholl, at 612-374-0374 or sharon@templeisrael.com.

Temple Israel requires learners to be up to date on immunizations, except in rare cases of medical exemption. Families are required to provide documentation each year that their child is immunized according to the Minnesota Department of Health Immunization Schedule and up to date on COVID-19 vaccinations as specified by the CDC.

CCAP Info
The Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP) provides financial assistance to help families with low incomes pay for child care.
