PreK- 3rd
Sundays 9:00-11:30
Yahadut (Judaic) concepts are introduced and explored through developmentally-appropriate instructional practices, and students will be introduced to some basic Ivrit (Hebrew) through song, stories, and teacher modeling. All students attend T’filah (worship) services and Music on Sunday mornings. 3rd Grade Optional Tuesday Session 20/21 ONLY - Tuesdays from 6:00-7:30P.M.
On Sundays, students study both Yahadut (Judaics) and Ivrit ( Hebrew), and attend T’filah (worship) services, while on Tuesdays students study Torah and Ivrit. The Yahadut and Torah curricula at each grade level are appropriate to the developmental stages of each grade, and focus on different areas each year. While some Ivrit is incorporated into both Yahadut and Torah study, focused modern Ivrit language instruction occurs twice weekly.
Ivrit (Hebrew) Option: Students will continue their Jewish studies (Judaics and Academy) and their Ivrit education. Non-Ivrit Option: For students who wish to continue their Jewish studies (Yahadut, Torah Study & Academy) without the requirement of taking Ivrit. Gesher L’Kesher Dinner: The Gesher L’Kesher Program includes the opportunity for ALL 8th – 12th grade students to enjoy social time together. Parents are required to sign up to bring dessert at least once during the school year.
We look very much forward to a wonderful new school year and guiding your child(ren) through their Jewish journey. As always if you should have any questions, please feel free to contact either of us.
B’Shalom, Rokki Parrinello / Mandy Thalhammer, Religious School Co-Principals
