Parent Resources
Parents play a big role in their child’s education. At Beth Jacob Preschool we provide plenty of opportunities for parents to both learn about what we are doing in the classroom and to participate! We offer frequent communication with parents through our newsletter, parent-teacher conferences, and daily interactions. This page provides a few additional resources.
