Program areas at JCC of Greater Orlando
The roth family jcc's award-winning preschool (ages 8 weeks through pre-k) has a reputation of excellence in the Community. On top of a stellar academic program with a built-in social skills curriculum, the jcc teaches Jewish values such as charity, kindness, and repairing the world. Students enjoy weekly enrichment classes such as judaica, music, art, spanish, and physical education as well as a weekly shabbat music program and havdallah service. Teachers all have specialized training in early childhood education and participate in ongoing professional development throughout the year. The jcc has an excellent track record in preparing children for kindergarten and life. Summer is where the jcc really shines. Camp j, serving students entering kindergarten through 10th grade, has more than 40 years of history of creating summer memories in central Florida. Camp j provides children with the full camp experience including outdoor activities, swimming, judaica, weekly shabbat programming, arts & crafts, musical theater, sports, and field trips (overnights for older children), and unbelievable ruach (spirit) which can be heard throughout the jcc all summer long. Sports, fitness, and wellness of our members is a core part of the jcc's mission. Our fitness Center offers traditional workout equipment, personal training, aquatics, sports leagues (for children, teens, and adults), swim teams, as well as group exercise classes such as les mills, baby boot camp, spin, barre, and pilates. The jcc also features full-sized tennis courts and a swimming pool staffed with lifeguards. The jcc offers masters swim, water aerobics, and swim lessons. Arts and culture are front and Center at the roth family jcc. Our cultural arts coordinator plans annual book and film festivals, several lecture series, concerts, and art exhibitions. And where would we be without our seniors? Our seniors enjoy field trips to museums, plays, movies the senior lounge is a constant buzz of mahjong, speaking engagements, and social events. Last, but certainly not least, our seniors work on staying fit and healthy by enjoying our partnership with the silver sneakers fitness program, offering seniors a discounted rate on exercise classes.
