Yuletide Ball

For over 134 years, Brooklyn Kindergarten Society has provided high-quality early childhood education to Central Brooklyn’s littlest learners. Since 1921, generations of Brooklynites have looked forward to the Yuletide Ball, an annual gathering to support Brooklyn kids and celebrate the holidays.

The 2025 Yuletide Ball was a resounding success, raising over $678,000 for our growing Inclusive Learning Program! This supportive framework provides our students with occupational therapy; access to the Fran Bernstein Sensory Gym; additional social & emotional learning through a licensed social worker; and coming soon, access to both a speech therapist and a Director of Inclusion & Special Education to lead this holistic team.
