Religious School Classes
Nitzanim (3 and 4 year olds with their parents or guardians)
We meet once a month for an hour on a Sunday morning and focus on holidays of the season. Each session includes stories, arts and crafts, songs, and, of course, traditional holiday snacks!
Gan and Aleph (Kindergarten and 1st grade)
Sunday morning classes provide students with the fundamental building blocks of a Jewish education.
Bet -Zayin (2nd - 7th grades)
The core of our Religious School program meets on Sunday mornings and Wednesday afternoons and includes:
learning to decode and understand key elements of Hebrew and tefillah (prayers),
exploring concepts of God and holiness,
developing a core set of values and ethics based on Jewish tradition,
continually deepening an understanding of biblical texts and the lessons our tradition can teach us,
learning about and experiencing lifecycle events,
expanding knowledge of Jewish history and the land of Israel
Ithaca Noar (8th – 12th grades)
Our post-Bnei Mitzvah classes provide information, experiences, atmosphere, guidance, topics, and materials to engage our students as they grow and mature.
