About
Imagine a Hebrew School where kids don’t want to miss a day. They come in with a smile and leave humming a Hebrew song. Imagine a child who feels the warmth and spirit of Judaism and understands its importance in today’s society.

Hebrew school is the perfect opportunity for children ages 5 to 12 to receive a formal Jewish education with hands-on exciting activities which bring out the beauty of our tradition.

Hebrew school’s underlying approach is for the children to enjoy the time spent so that they are left with positive feelings and fond memories of their Jewish education.  The program is thus carefully blended with songs, games, incentives, arts and crafts, drama, field trips, family celebrations and other exciting co-curricular activities.

Mission Statement
The mission of the Hebrew School is to provide and promote the highest quality after-school Judaic education to a diverse community of Jewish children.

Our aim is to nurture and build the foundation of each child's Jewish identity through our interdisciplinary educational approach. The goal of our dedicated teachers is to inspire a twofold love:  A love for learning and a love for Judaism while fostering a feeling of familiarity within their heritage for each individual.

A well-balanced Jewish education will develop in our students a commitment to using Torah values as a guide to the decisions of life, community, and life-long learning and teaching.

Goals 
Our philosophy is that every Jewish child is entitled to a Jewish education.  The Hebrew School will offer a warm and lively Jewish atmosphere where children can attain a unique and exciting awareness of their Jewish identity.

At Hebrew School we endeavor that students should...
  • Attain a strong sense of love of Judaism and pride in being Jewish.
  • Master the Hebrew skills of reading and writing.
  • Learn basic Hebrew language
  • Discover and explore the Torah, the incredible history of the Jewish people and see its relevance in today's day and age.
  • Gain an understanding of the practices and traditions of Judaism.
  • Know the morals, values and ethical behavior mandated by the Torah.
  • Have a hands-on experience and appreciation for all Jewish holidays.
  • Learn basic prayers so that the students will feel comfortable when attending services.
  • Identify with the land of Israel and its inhabitants.
  • Have the opportunity to express their questions and thoughts.

Indeed, a child equipped with an education and a feeling for Judaism’s beautiful teachings, traditions, and historical lessons is a child better equipped to face the awesome moral challenges of today’s society.
