Temple Emanuel Religious School Creating Jewish Lives
At Temple Emanuel’s Religious School we believe that experiencing and “living Judaism” is the best way to learn about Judaism. Our approach to Jewish education centers around project-based activities. Students work in small groups on Torah, holiday, and Judaica units, culminating in a “Hagigah” (community celebration), during which students present their work to the Religious School community. Our Hebrew program is unique. Our students gather in the “Beyt Midrash,” (House of Study), where they read and study the Hebrew prayers of Jewish tradition individually or with a partner.
Your child will:
• Engage in an individualized Hebrew program to read and understand Jewish prayers and holidays
• Learn about our customs, traditions and heritage through art, dance, music, drama, and technology
• Participate in innovative project-based classrooms
• Live Tikkun Olam (Repairing the World) by caring for others, giving tzedakah and participating in mitzvah projects
• Experience the richness of the Jewish year as a community
• Celebrate learning at our creative community days
• Pray and learn with our rabbis and educators
• Explore the depth of the Torah at age-appropriate levels
