Universal Jewish Preschool
Why does Jewish preschool cost so much? In the new episode of The Jewish Channel series “The Salon,” panelist Jordana Horn of the parenting website Kveller argues that philanthropists should invest in Jewish preschool — “Birthright closer to birth” — and Rabbi Robyn Fryer Bodzin makes the case for paying early childhood teachers well.
The panelists also chat about the two different feminist strategies presented by Purim heroines Esther and Vashti.

The Salon is moderated by Jane Eisner, the Forward’s editor, and Rachel Sklar of Change the Ratio.

This is a moment of great uncertainty for the news media, for the Jewish people, and for our sacred democracy. It is a time of confusion and declining trust in public institutions. An era in which we need humans to report facts, conduct investigations that hold power to account, tell stories that matter and share honest discourse on all that divides us.
With no paywall or subscriptions, the Forward is entirely supported by readers like you. Every dollar you give this Passover is invested in the future of the Forward — and telling the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
The Forward doesn’t rely on funding from institutions like governments or your local Jewish federation. There are thousands of readers like you who give us $18 or $36 or $100 each month or year.
