Five opportunities to connect, share ideas, and explore the challenges of early childhood leadership. No cost to attend.

Real Conversations. Practical Insights. Stronger Leadership.

Leading a Jewish early childhood education program comes with unique opportunities, challenges, and decisions. Sometimes, the most valuable resource is a conversation with someone who understands your work.

Join Dr. Tamar Andrews and fellow Jewish early childhood education leaders for a five-part Lunch & Learn series designed to encourage meaningful discussion, share practical strategies, and build connections across the field.

From human resources and staffing challenges to emerging trends, best practices, and the everyday realities of educational leadership, each session will explore timely topics relevant to directors and those who support them.

Bring your lunch or a cup of coffee, your questions, and your experiences. You’ll leave with fresh perspectives, practical ideas, and connections with colleagues who understand the work you do.

Each session is 30 minutes
