Welcome to School!
The Gan is a premier Jewish preschool in the heart of Juanita, Kirkland, offering a beautiful, nurturing environment where young children thrive.
✨ At The Gan, curiosity blooms and children blossom.
Rooted in Judaism’s core values of kindness, respect, and sensitivity, and inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach, our hands-on program encourages creativity, critical thinking, and a love of learning. Our dedicated teachers partner closely with parents to support each child’s social, emotional, and cognitive development in warm, engaging classrooms.
The Gan serves children 6 months through 3 years, with Story Time and Mom & Me classes for toddlers. Our program runs 8:30 AM–4:30 PM, with half- and full-day options available, and focuses on preparing children for their next educational steps.
Children joyfully explore their Jewish heritage through art, music, movement, holidays, and imaginative play, along with weekly enrichment programs including Drama, Yoga, Hebrew, Dance, Karate, and Shabbat Sing.
