Broadman-Kaplan ECC is committed to providing a high quality program for children ages 18 months to five. The foremost concerns of the program are health, growth, and the development of the whole child. The ECC believes that motivated children learn best when given the opportunity for choice and self-direction.

The ECC offers your child a traditional Jewish environment where they can learn and play. We strive to lead your children to feel, to understand, to live and to love Judaism. The environment encourages a strong Jewish identification through the weekly observances of Shabbat, the celebration of Jewish holidays, exposure to Jewish values and the introduction of Hebrew through songs and games.
