About Congregation Beth Solomon

Congregation Beth Solomon welcomes the students and families of Philadelphia to its center-based early child care and education facility. As a center, Congregation Beth Solomon resembles the best of what students will get in the years ahead in structured schooling while maintaining the close community and relationships that’re instrumental in early childhood development. Attending a center benefits students as students will spend their days in a structured, stable environment that hones spatial, vocabulary and other skills with enriching curriculums and activities. For Philadelphia parents, as well, the full-time schedule at Congregation Beth Solomon can be exactly what they need. Full-time gives students the time to really gain from the best of what early education can be - learning with peers, exploring with teachers and finding something new to explore every day. The full-time schedule at Congregation Beth Solomon creates a real community for families outside of the home and sets up students well for tackling education in the years ahead. In addition, Congregation Beth Solomon teaches a mixed-age curriculum that facilities peer learning and communal growth. In a mixed-age classroom like at Congregation Beth Solomon, students receive open-ended, stimulating activities and are encouraged to move at their own pace. Younger students receive help and encouragement from older students, boosting their confidence and self-esteem, and older students get to lend a helping hand, teaching empathy and the joy of giving. Mixed-age learning replicates the best of a family or neighborhood group structure as children socialize with peers a little ahead or a little behind their own development path.
