 Beth Emeth Early Childhood
Center (BEECC),
a Jewish preschool established in 1990, offers the nurturing environment that you
want for your child. It provides the atmosphere, the facilities, and the
professionalism that give your child a good foundation in secular and
Jewish education.
Students attending our
preschool come from many parts of Northern Virginia, including Herndon,
Reston, Fairfax, Chantilly, Centreville, Ashburn, Manassas, Great Falls,
Oakton, Vienna, Gainesville, and Alexandria.

BEECC Picks Apples |
BEECC offers small classes in a stimulating and loving
environment. Our program fosters the natural curiosity of each child,
while challenging his or her intellectual, physical, and social
abilities. Guided by a caring, professional staff, BEECC inspires your
children to have positive feelings about themselves and others, as well as
interest in their heritage.
The curriculum meets the developmental needs of the
individual child. It provides a wide range of experiences, including the
use of art materials, music appreciation, movement and dance, story
telling, cooking, and discovery in nature and science. Jewish customs,
traditions, and the Hebrew language are also introduced to the pre-schoolers
at BEECC.
Jewish holidays are celebrated
with programs and activities that encourage family participation. The
children also have an active role in two Shabbat Family Services each year.
Torah for Tots, a monthly Shabbat morning program, enhances the children's
introduction to Shabbat and other holidays through songs, dances, stories,
discussions, and food.
