We are a vibrant and proud egalitarian Conservative synagogue dedicated to strengthening our members’ commitment to Judaism and community. Our goals are to foster a greater understanding and respect for Judaism, and instill a love of Judaism and our rich culture in our congregants and their families.
We also are dedicated to dor l’dor – generation to generation – as we commit ourselves to shape a vital Jewish future for our children.
Our members, many of whom are second, third, and even fourth-generation Temple Sinai families, actively participate in all we have to offer from our Shabbat and weekday services to our Adult Education classes and active Men’s Club, Sisterhood, Hazak, and Youth programs.
Temple Sinai’s Ann Newman Preschool and Infant Center, a staple in the community for over 50 years, offers a comprehensive, developmentally-based program allowing each child to reach his or her individual potential while embracing the values and traditions of Judaism.
Our program, serving children 6 weeks through 5 years, is creative and nurturing, and utilizes theories and practices at the forefront of the field of Early Childhood Education.
We work to foster self-confidence, independence, social competence, and readiness skills that provide a strong foundation for success in school and society. Enhanced programming includes music/movement, science, social studies, Hebrew, math, language arts and cooking as part of our daily activities.
Focusing on the whole child, we recognize each child’s individuality while supporting his/her development of self-esteem, social confidence and competence, and cognitive and physical skills.
Our comprehensive and developmentally based program reflects the Pennsylvania early childhood state standards and the recommendations of the National Association for the Education of Young Children. The program covers all of the essential areas of early childhood learning and academic readiness skills intertwined with a rich introduction to Jewish values and observances.
The Ann Newman Preschool and Infant Center offers a comprehensive, developmentally-based program that allows each child to reach his or her individual potential.
We are very proud of our creative, highly educated, nurturing, dynamic and dedicated staff. The Ann Newman Preschool maintains a strong commitment to the individualization of programming, and inclusion opportunities are available at all age levels for children with special needs
