The Gan Rochester Preschool

The Gan is a holistic early learning center located in Rochester, Minnesota. We seek to create a stimulating and enriching educational environment for each one of our students. Inspired by elements of the Reggio-Emilia and Montessori philosophies, we aim to ignite a spark in each child for a lifelong passion for learning and discovery. Our Jewish values drive the curriculum, environment and school culture. We model and encourage kindness, respect, compassion, confidence and responsibility.

We are committed to building a strong educational foundation for our children through play, social collaboration, and exploration. We strongly believe in fostering children’s natural curiosity as a means to inspire learning. Our emergent and experiential curriculum enables our students to draw their own conclusions through exploring and experiencing, which allows them to own their knowledge.

We look forward to partnering with you as we guide and encourage your children to grow and discover themselves as young learners.

True to our name, in The Gan -garden in Hebrew- a child is viewed as a seed that we nurture with the utmost care. A seed that is most impressionable in its first years, since the seed’s every experience will shape and color the quality of its matured self.
