Jewish Preschool on Sardis Launches Book Club There's nothing like a good book! This year, the Jewish Preschool on Sardis PTO proudly launched its inaugural Book Club. We are thrilled to provide an additional way for our families to unite and delve into our shared heritage through a mix of fiction and nonfiction. Our first gathering was on Oct. 2, cozily hosted under the sukkah at the preschool director's residence. The evening featured wine and cheese, engaging “speed dating” activities for getting to know each other, and the selection of our first book, “The Two-Family House” by Lynda Cohen Loigman. We reconvened just before Thanksgiving to discuss this captivating, though somewhat fantastical, book over pie and tea. Excitingly, we're planning our next meeting for mid-January. It promises to be a cozy affair with hot chocolate and winter treats as we discuss “The Storyteller” by Jodi Picoult. The Book Club has been a tremendous success, and we eagerly anticipate more families joining us for future meetups!"
A great opportunity to make new friends and connect
Book Club is the perfect excuse to get out of the house at night.
“Speed dating” other parents and teachers!
