Membership
Our religious school program seeks to provide an education designed to inspire our students to lead their lives as identified, committed Jews and ethical human beings. Our purpose is to instill Jewish values and a sense of pride in our students for their Jewish heritage, customs, language and traditions by creating a learning environment that is warm, challenging and enticing. We will encourage our students and enable them to become constructive citizens of our country and community.
We hope to challenge our students to discover their own path to an authentic relationship with God, Torah, Israel and the Jewish people. We seek to validate and enhance the Jewish practices and outlook of each of our families with their diverse and distinct backgrounds and family heritage. Through the study of Hebrew, the sacred language of the Jewish people, students build their prayer skills and gain the knowledge and comfort that enable them to participate in a Jewish prayer service.
