EARLY CHILDHOOD ENRICHMENT CLASSES
The JCC’s Early Childhood Education Department offers enrichment classes for children from birth to 5 years old. These classes are open to everyone–you don’t have to be an APJCC Preschool family to enroll a child in these classes.
Our enrichment classes are currently virtual (on Zoom).
PJ Library’s new monthly program will liven up your Saturdays with stories, music and movement the whole family will enjoy, led by Rabbi Laurie.

Previously held in San Jose Public Libraries… currently held on Zoom! Find us on Facebook for updated event info.

The JCC offers group swim lessons in the spring, summer, and fall, and private and semi-private lessons all year long. Our outdoor pool is heated to 82 degrees year-round. Keep your child in swim lessons throughout the year so they don’t forget what they learned over the summer!
