Gabriel is coming home beaming, already filled with new life and new concepts. I am ever so grateful that we said "yes" to PJA for Gabriel's education, it is the best decision we made prior to the pandemic and our whole family has reaped the rewards of an excellent education facilitated by a talented staff. Thanks for being the welcoming and guiding light at the beginning of such an enriching schooling experience. - Sarah E. Rohr, PJA Parent

Recent Notes of Appreciation from Families
I feel so energized after these past 2 days. Seeing children in the hallways, hearing voices pour out of classrooms, observing first graders organizing a soccer game and building their own fairy garden. Reading a book and hearing live reactions because we are not muted on zoom. Having snack time together as a classroom community. This is school! I feel joyful to be back!!"
- Jenny Crego, 1st grade teacher
It has only been 2 half days of in person school and already there is a noticeable difference in Shiri’s attitude and personality. She’s excited in a new way about learning, jumps out of bed and gets dressed right away and has the biggest smile plastered on her face all day long. It makes my heart sing knowing not only that she’s happy but that she is safe while she’s learning.
- Rabbi Eve Posen
After spending so much time learning together at a distance, it was such a joy to be together as a community, and though we are masked and socially distanced, the delight in our classroom was undeniable!”
- Susanna, 1st and 2nd grade teacher
Today was amazing. It was perfect. There’s nothing you could do to make it better!
