Temple Ohav Shalom Center for Early Learning (TOSCEL) along with Temple Ohav Shalom is committed to keeping everyone in our community safe during the current COVID-19 pandemic. TOSCEL follows the guidelines put out by the CDC, OCDEL (Office of Child Development and Early Learning), and the Department of Human Services. As these organizations update their guidelines, we will update ours and inform parents of any changes. Our TOSCEL community is proud to provide a safe workplace by mandating vaccinations (for everyone aged 18+), mask-wearing, social distancing, and elevated sanitation standards to ensure the ongoing safety of our staff, our students, and our community. While we are sad to hear that this may deter some from joining our program, our number one priority is and will always be the safety of all of our community members, especially those in our community who are the most vulnerable to Covid-19. 

Please email center@templohavshalom.org with any questions about our policy.
