About Santa Fe

TBS Preschool and Kindergarten is a nationally accredited early childhood program, located on the beautiful grounds of the Temple Beth Shalom, a reform Jewish congregation.

We are committed to inspiring lifelong learning and compassion. Our preschool provides children ages 2-6 years old and their families with a caring, creative, play-based environment that sparks the child’s innate joy of learning. We believe that engaging the abilities to learn, creative problem-solving and being compassionate allow our children to reach their full potential as human beings.

What makes TBS Preschool different?

• Low student – teacher ratio
• Teaching Staff and philosophy
• Play-based environment with integrated curriculum

At TBS Preschool, we nurture the emotional, social, physical and intellectual needs of each child. Our integrated curriculum sparks each child’s innate joy in learning while helping them develop a positive relationship with themselves and the world around them.

We believe that early childhood years are where children develop a positive self-image. Children are given the opportunity to make their own choices, to experiment and explore in a rich and stimulating environment under the guidance of trained and loving staff. Throughout the day, children work individually and in small groups, and balance their time between free exploration and planned activities.

We structure our curriculum around key elements of development to ensure the growth of the whole child through the domains of: Self, Family and Community, Literacy, Scientific and Numerical Understanding, Physical Development, Health and Well-Being. Approaches to Learning and Aesthetic Creativity.
