We strongly encourage everyone to participate in Kesher Hadash and Bros Hodesh/Girls Rosh Hodesh/Moving Traditions. We are confident that you would greatly benefit from those programs.
However, this is not required for your participation in the Madrichim program.

You can apply for a madrich/a position in the Synagogue School by completing this form as soon as possible. Call/text Morah Rebecca with any questions.
