Our Teachers

Our exceptional, experienced teachers are the heart and soul of our schools and the principle reason behind our continued success. Their level of commitment to both our schools and our students is unwavering.

• Our teachers have more than 750 years combined experience at MJCCA preschools alone!
• Most of our teachers have Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Education or a related field; at minimum teachers must have a CDA.
• Our staff complete more than twice the state mandated requirement for continuing education through our own training school. The MJCCA Benator Early Childhood Training Institute (BECTI,) with a combination of Judaic and best practices in Early Childhood Education coursework as well as first aid, CPR, and health and safety.
• Our teachers come from various countries including Israel, giving our preschoolers an up close, first-hand look at different cultures.

"I have learned so much from the staff at the Weinstein School. I attribute it to the fact that you are well trained and caring individuals. The resources that you provide help me to be a better parent and your moral support gives me the strength to carry on."
- Miriam (proud MJCCA preschool mother of two)
