Synagogue Leadership Seminar: Public Pre-K Expansion in NJ and the Impact on the Jewish Community

Date: Monday, January 13
Time: 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm (EST)
Zoom

Join Emily Fox, Director of Jewish Educational Initiatives at Jewish Federation of Greater MetroWest NJ, for an overview of the rollout of NJ state-funded preschool programs, how it has impacted enrollment in Greater MetroWest NJ Jewish early childhood centers, and a discussion on ways to sustain and strengthen Jewish early childhood education and engagement in synagogue-based locations. Following Emily’s overview, she will moderate a panel with colleagues currently partnering with districts as public pre-K host sites.

This meeting is open to all synagogue clergy, administrators, and lay leaders and will address key topics such as:
  • Funding and financial impact
  • Things to consider beyond the financial impact
  • Staffing and preparing for changes
  • Aligning with your synagogue’s values
