Youth Education & Engagement
From tots to teens, we have something for the youngest members of our community. Regardless of where your children attend school, Beth Sholom is a place for everyone to feel at home, and it’s never too early to develop that connection! Our religious school and youth groups are sponsored in part by grants from Jewish Community Partners.
Religious School
Pre-B’nai Mitzvah: K-5
We invite all of our pre-B’nai Mitzvah school-aged children to enroll in our Social Emotional (middot) Jewish studies-based Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math school. A Weekly program aimed at increasing the connections that our students have with our community, tradition, customs, and holidays through hands-on, science-based learning. Beth Sholom Religious School meets on Tuesday afternoons from 4:30 to 6:30. Judaics and Hebrew will be woven together to provide a rich educational environment where children of diverse learning styles and abilities can engage in the ongoing process of building their Jewish identities.
Our Ilanot (Trees) class - 8th - 10th Grade
Will meet once a month with Rabbi Sammy. Students will meet on the first Tuesday evening of each month from 5-6 pm. A tasty dinner will be provided.
