Abstract:

It is perhaps eclectic acceptance of Judaism as well as the Center's function as a community organization which enables a Jewish Community Center preschool to attract children from a diversity of Jewish backgrounds and to offer a wide variety of experiences in Judaism for Jewish children. When a child attends a Center preschool, he enters into many activities of the Jewish community with no age, sex or denominational segregation.
