BHA Preschool - Criteria for Participation in Program
BHA Preschool - Criteria for Participation in Program
We aim to accommodate any child ages 2-4 into our intimate learning community. Because of the limitations of our space and staffing, we outlined these criteria to help determine if we can meet a child's needs.
As you review these criteria, do your best to assess your child, and apply "Always," "Usually," "Sometimes," or "Rarely" to each statement.
Please contact ilana@beaconhebrewalliance.org to discuss your specific questions, particularly if you wish for your child to attend BHA Preschool but you answer "sometimes" or "rarely" to one or more criteria.
Autonomy:
- Child walks independently and feeds self.
- Child is comfortable to explore away from your side in an unfamiliar setting.
Communication:
- Child communicates basic feelings and needs through facial expressions, vocalization, and body language if not words.
- Child interacts with others (preliminarily by pointing to show things to others and by copying actions and words for example).
Pro-Social Behavior:

- Child does not use physical or verbal aggression as a regular form of communication.
Attention:
