Our goals are to:
- Help students and families discover the ways Judaism is relevant to their own lives.
- Build a solid foundation of Jewish knowledge and experiences, and to develop a strong and positive sense of Jewish identity.
- Instill Jewish values in a way that students can apply to their contemporary lives.
- Engage entire families in their Jewish journey.
- Create a Kehillah Kedoshah – a Holy Community, whose culture celebrates each person’s unique Jewish expression and contributions.
- Inspire our community to add richness and meaning to their lives by passing on the wisdom and tools our Jewish heritage offers us.
- Prepare our students to be confident prayer leaders and teachers of Torah for their b’nei mitzvah service.
Our doors are always open and you are welcome! ! ברוכים הבאים
