Families must choose one of the following options:
Option 1: All In-Person Learning Tuesday and Thursday
Tuesdays, 4:15 - 6:15 pm, All students attend IN PERSON
Thursdays, 4:15-5:30 pm, All students attend IN PERSON
This option has a focus on building relationships between the learners, their teachers and the community
Option 2: In-Person Tuesday and Remote Thursday Learning
Tuesdays, 4:15 - 6:15 pm, All students attend IN PERSON
Thursdays, 5:30-6:15 pm, All students attend REMOTELY
This option addresses the need for flexibility in families’ schedules but because of its abbreviated time may not align with all aspects of in-person learning.
We will be supplementing the weekday learning with the following experiences to encourage family participation:
KINDERGARTEN - SIXTH GRADE/K-VAV
Each grade will participate in one Friday Night Family Service and one to two Saturday morning B’Yahad programs a year.
Friday Night Family Services: Once a month at 7:30pm
B’Yahad: One Saturday a month, from 9-11am
At B’Yahad, parents learn with Rabbi Jodie, Cantor Eric, or Morah Rebecca about how the weekly Torah portion can apply to our lives today, while the kids engage in fun, interactive learning with one of our skilled synagogue school teachers. At 10:15am we come together for a brief Shabbat morning service which ends at 11am.
