Operating Hours
The Jewish Preschool for the Community is open from 7:45 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. Students can attend half days from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., or full days from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Parents can also opt for early drop off if they need to drop their child off between 7:45 a.m. and 8:45 a.m.
Because we are a small and growing program, we can adapt to serve the needs of your families and schedule with some flexibility. Please talk to us about which days work best for you.
Calendar
The preschool will follow the Roanoke City schools calendar, in addition to observing all Jewish Holidays. We will have several special days throughout our school year, in addition to field trips. Please check the monthly calendar for more information on these activities! You will receive a detailed calendar at the beginning of the school year. We also send a weekly update each Fri. Please check your child’s folder for any communications.
Inclement Weather Procedures
The preschool will follow the Roanoke City Schools closing and delay schedule. It will work as follows:
- Roanoke City closed- we are closed

Other days may be affected, and you will be notified by telephone if changes in the schedule will happen. Those decisions will be made by the JPC Director.
Please check your Brightwheel messages, or watch the local television stations and radio stations for the closing and delay information for Roanoke City. If you still have doubts, call the director for clarification.
