But the food issues are not at all a big deal unless your kid only eats meat. We bought fake chicken nuggets and lots of other veggie options that worked fine especially since they can microwave the kids lunch for you.

I think the very stable staff speaks highly of sslc as being extremely well run. The director is wonderful and very organized & responsive. Most teachers have been there many years. They have a huge playground and a very good indoor play spot and make ample use of both. Another reason we liked sslc so much was the very low class size compared to most other preschools.

As a non-Jew I thought my kid fit in fine and had a number of playdates with the buddies she made. I did not really make friends so much (although that was not really a big goal of mine) though since they don't have family socialization events. I loved that they limited the things they invited parents to come in for (I.e. fewer days off work for them) and that the vital things were communicated by email primarily.
