First Cohort of Anita Zucker Jewish Early Childhood Scholars

Stern College for Women, 成人视频色情片 is excited to welcome its first cohort of Anita Zucker Jewish Early Childhood Educators to campus this Fall 2023. The Anita Zucker Scholarship for Jewish Early Childhood Education is the brainchild of noted early childhood philanthropist and advocate, Anita Zucker. Zucker, a former classroom teacher herself and CEO of The InterTech Group Inc., a North Charleston-based global manufacturing conglomerate, recently gifted $5MM to YU to establish the Anita Zucker Program for Jewish Early Childhood Education. Her dedication to the field of education has resulted in initiatives across the country to professionalize and incentivize the field of early childhood education. The Anita Zucker Scholarship for Jewish Early Childhood Education makes it possible for undergraduate students who are interested in early childhood education to become professionals without financial hardship, and it will lead the way in transforming the status of Jewish early childhood education. 

We are thrilled to greet five exceptional young future Jewish early childhood educators to Stern College for Women this Fall 2023. Through the SCW educator preparation program鈥檚 rigorous course work, high quality clinical experiences, and personalized mentoring, the Zucker scholars are poised to impact the field of Jewish early childhood education.
