Welcome!

At Mickey Fried Preschool, we believe that children learn as they play. 

We are a Jewish preschool open to families of all faiths and backgrounds, and committed to providing play-based, high-quality early childhood education to all children. 

Our school offers a warm, creative environment where each child’s unique style of living and learning is valued and nurtured. The foundation of personality, self-image and motivation to learn are all firmly established in the first five years of a child’s life. Our school helps give your child the tools, space and support for the experiences that help them learn and grow.


"Our daughter's three years at Mickey Fried Preschool was key to fostering a love of play, exploration, learning, and friendship that prepared her to flourish in elementary school." 
— Gary M.

		                            <span class="slider_description">Through our many enrichment classes, we expose the children to a variety of learning opportunities. These classes help improve critical thinking, social skills, fine/gross motor skills, cognitive skills, and physical fitness. 


At Mickey Fried, students begin their learning journey with the core subject areas. Early math, literacy and science concepts are introduced in a fun and approachable way. We love to see the growth of their social and listening emotional skills, along with a new ability to focus and problem solve.


Our students thrive as they experience art, block play, use of manipulative toys, science, sand and water play, gardening, cooking, music, creative movement, dramatic play, and story time. They have learned about the life cycle of a butterfly, seasonal changes, reading emotions, details about national holidays and more.  


Our preschoolers participate in a different “special” each morning. These activities include yoga, story time with Ms. Val, music with Cantor Kissner, and fitness. On Fridays, we celebrate Shabbat together as a school with Rabbi Treu in a fun, age-appropriate way.</span>
