About Luna De Papel:
In a world where everyone is increasingly used to working with electronic devices, at Luna de Papel they take a step back and focus on practical life skills that teach an appreciation for handcrafts. Children today are used to instant gratification, this can stifle the ability to strive for long-term goals. Handcrafts take commitment but they teach children that they can achieve great things if they take them one step at a time. At Luna de Papel, they teach children how to “create”. When they learn to create, they know that they can control their environment, which builds tremendous self-esteem. Their goal is to build self-esteem through more approachable, authentic, and sustainable self-expression than simple art. They offer a ton of classes and camps for kids.

About The Waldo School:
The Waldo School Jersey City project came to life when two friends came together because they could not find a school in the area that followed their educational philosophy for their children.
Located in the heart of the Waldo section of the Jersey City Waterfront, The Waldo School sets the standard for leading private education. By adopting and developing a highly innovative curriculum, our students are encouraged to explore and flourish while discovering and developing new talents. Their students are inspired to grow as individuals, with no child forced to ascribe to one specific mold through equal emphasis on all disciplines and opportunities to explore concepts at his or her own pace.

The Ethical Community Charter School GIVING DAY
Support and give back at https://www.hudsongives.org/organizations/the-ethical-community-charter-school-family-school-association
Since its inception in September 2009, The Ethical Community Charter School (TECCS) has been a beacon of academic excellence and community engagement. What started with 120 kindergartners and first graders has blossomed into a dynamic K-8 school, now educating nearly 400 children from diverse backgrounds.
Founded on the principles of ethics, service, and social justice, TECCS was born from the collaboration of Jersey City families seeking exceptional education and a team from New York inspired by the renowned Ethical Culture Fieldston School. This unique partnership birthed an ethics-based institution tailored to Jersey City’s vibrant community.
Growing Together, Thriving Together
Over the years, TECCS has not only expanded in size but also forged strong bonds within the community and embarked on mission-driven initiatives. As a member of the UNESCO Associated Schools Project and the Ashoka Changemaker Schools network, TECCS is committed to fostering intercultural dialogue and empowering changemakers of tomorrow.
Our commitment to holistic education extends beyond the classroom. Through grants and partnerships, our students participate in initiatives like Michelle Obama’s “Let’s Move” Active Schools program, Drew University’s Shakespeare Festival, and tailored reading programs by esteemed educators like Mary McGriff and Shira Epstein.
A Community of Integrity and Insight
At TECCS, we believe in nurturing analytical thinking, creativity, and individuality. Our teachers lead by example, fostering a culture of rigorous academics, mutual respect, and collaborative learning. We prioritize integrity, autonomy, and social responsibility, empowering our students to become not just academically proficient but also socially conscious leaders and citizens.
Expanding Our Commitment to Quality Education
Starting September 2024, we are excited to announce a free pre-K 4 program, furthering our commitment to accessible and quality education for all. Additionally, as recipients of the 21st Century Community Learning Centers (21st CCLC) award, TECCS offers free tutoring, homework help, and afterschool enrichment for students in grades 3-8. As we continue our journey of empowering minds and building futures, TECCS remains dedicated to providing a safe, caring, and enriching environment where every child can thrive academically, socially, and ethically.
Join us at TECCS, where education is a journey of discovery, growth, and positive.

JC Kids Run 2024 – Special Needs Kids Run Sponsored By Smile Preschool

This year, we can offer free participation for kids with special needs in the Kid’s Run special needs time slot, thanks to the sponsorship from Smile Preschool.
Smile Preschool has been providing “preschool as family” environment for over 27 years to the children of Jersey City and their parents. We were the first preschool in the area to achieve Abbott certification in education. We are constantly working to provide the highest level of care for your little ones from birth to six years of age, readying them for their next steps in education.
It’s time to register for our annual Kids Run 2024, so mark your calendars!
This year, we are again featuring a time slot for kids with special needs. The dedicated time slot will be the first in the day, allowing kids with special needs to run before it gets too crowded and noisy. Parents or caregivers can assist their kids, and wheelchairs are permitted.
It will be flat terrain, and during the allocated time, we want the participants to have fun and experience that will probably be their first one for many!
Kids at this time will not be timed, and all of them will receive a medal.
The event will take place at Exchange Place (along the Hudson River) on May 18th, from 10 am to 1 pm. However, we will have the first run for our special needs kids from 9 to 10 am.
Register HERE.
Participation in this time slot is FREE.
Follow us on Instagram and Facebook for the latest updates.
