Innovative Education Elevated By Tradition

At Laurie Preschool and Martin J. Gottlieb Day School we believe in the excitement of inquiry.

By meeting each student where they are academically, our expert faculty encourage a thirst for knowledge and inspire a sense of wonder about the world. Individualized attention — giving students the resources they need to stretch and to thrive — is at the center of our educational curriculum. We see the whole child, and we empower them with personalized support to strengthen vital skills, broaden their intellectual horizons and position them for lifelong success. Jewish values suffuse our learning here. Inspired by text and tradition, our students distinguish themselves as scholars and as mensches, committed to their community and able to excel wherever their paths may lead.

The Gottlieb Advantage

Studies show the benefits of bilingual education. Children who learn as part of a dual-language curriculum demonstrate increased cognitive development, better academic achievement, improved memory and enhanced executive functioning.

At Martin J. Gottlieb Day School, our students reap the full reward of an immersive bilingual environment that has them studying, singing, problem solving and playing in both English and Hebrew — not only multiplying neural connections in the brain but also connecting them to a shared cultural heritage that can help nourish and sustain their emerging Jewish identities.

Martin J. Gottlieb Day School graduates have been admitted to the advanced-studies high school programs of their choice, including  Stanton College Prep IB, Paxon School for Advanced Studies IB, Mandarin High School AICE, the Bolles School, Samuel Wolfson School for Advanced Studies IB and Douglas Anderson School of the Arts.

Our students have been accepted to Brandeis University, Columbia University, Cornell University, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Emory University, Florida State University, Harvard University, Jewish Theological Seminary Joint Program, Princeton University,  Syracuse University, University of Florida, University of Pennsylvania, Yeshiva University among others.
