 The
UJC Early Childhood Center is pleased to announce the
opening of our newest location at 104 Bypass Road in
Williamsburg.
Since
1948 the United Jewish Community of the Virginia Peninsula
has operated a preschool. We are currently located on
25 wooded acres in the Winterhaven section of Newport
News. Our facility has four classrooms each with its
own bathroom and an exit directly to the outdoors for
fire safety. There is a fully equipped outdoor playground
and an indoor gymnasium which is used for rainy day activities.
We offer preschool for children ages 2 through 4 and
a full day Kindergarten. Before and after care is available
for our students. Each of our classes features a low
student-teacher ratio. We offer preschool for children ages 2 through 4 and

 Statement
of Philosophy
Children learn best in a safe, nurturing environment.
Our school’s goal
is to provide developmentally appropriate experiences to foster the growth
of the whole child. Emphasis is placed on play and interactive learning to
promote the social, emotional, academic and physical development of each child.
Cognitive, creative and physical activities are planned to foster daily growth.
An environment is provided that seeks to promote positive self esteem and social
interaction. Our teachers strive to provide constant encouragement and praise,
not only for the child’s products but also for the processes that he
or she goes through in obtaining them.
As a Jewish school, we instill in our children values
as well as opportunities to practice basic religious
observances. The lessons we learn are those found in
the Old Testament which is the foundation of our heritage.
