Olam Tikvah Preschool is a private, cooperative Jewish preschool for children aged 20 months to pre-K. Established in 1973, we provide a wide variety of learning experiences that include structured learning, circle time, music, sensory experiences, stories, and snack time. The curriculum at OT is presented to the children through ongoing topics such as Jewish holidays, positive self-concepts, family relationships, seasons, nutrition, colors, and numbers.

OT Preschool offers discounts for synagogue members. Space is available for the 2011-2012 school year. To learn more about Olam Tikvah Preschool, contact Teacher/Director Sharon Sherry, (703) 425-1886, or see the OT Preschool web site.
