This year, our elementary and middle school grades have a brand new whole school curriculum. Each month we will focus on a new Jewish value through different lenses. These classes will focus on building and maintaining our community of friends and learners. In addition to this friendship-focused class time, each of our preschool and elementary students will enjoy regular music and library sessions.
Last year, our 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders experimented with an immersion-based Hebrew learning model called Hebrew Through Movement. This year, we are expanding the program to include all of our elementary students, K-5. Hebrew Through Movement shares the beauty of Hebrew as a real, spoken language, enabling young learners to get a taste of the sound and feel of the language long before they begin learning to read it. This exposure will make learning to read Hebrew easier and far more fun as they begin to recognize words they already know!
Upper School (Grades 6-12)
Sunday Religious School:
- Grades 6-8 – weekly from 5:30-6:15pm
- Grades 9-12 – weekly from 6:30-7:30pm
We are overhauling our Middle and High School programs as well! Our 6th-8th grades will take part in our whole school curriculum, where each month will focus on a new value. Now, your 7th grader and your 3rd grader can discuss the different ways they are learning the same topics at the dinner table!
Our popular Confirmation program with Rabbi Josh will now include both 9th and 10th grades, as we expand it into a two year program. These students will meet together with Rabbi Josh, exploring Jewish decision making, different religions, and social justice.
Additionally, our Middle and High School students will have the opportunity to participate in a new series of electives in an exciting new format! More information on electives will be coming soon.
