2024-25 Religious School and Hebrew School Registration - Form

Temple Israel Religious School
2024-2025 ♦ 5784-5785

Our Mission

To inspire and nurture students in forming their Jewish identity and love of Jewish life, while providing a strong understanding of Reform Judaism. We do this through the teaching of Jewish holidays, lifecycle, Torah, and values, along with Hebrew, Shabbat & holidays, and tikkun olam (“repair of the world”) - always while deepening our connection to the land of Israel and its people.

Temple Israel’s youth & family programming provides an opportunity for friendships and community-building in an environment that welcomes students and families and encourages active participation. Our focus is to make learning attainable to all and to foster a love of Judaism and the Jewish people.

Program Highlights

Religious School: Students will meet bi-weekly on Sunday mornings for engaging and interactive learning experiences rooted in our values, which include music, prayer, and hands-on activities. Our program will be enhanced by the addition of the #OnwardHebrew model of Hebrew learning, which uses the sound-to-print approach. We learn language best when we hear and engage with the language before we learn to read. On Sundays, our students will be exposed to Hebrew words and phrases through t’filah (“prayer”), Hebrew Through Movement lessons, and Jewish Life Vocabulary which will allow them to hear and internalize Hebrew to better prepare them as they learn to read and decode Hebrew prayers. Please click here for the full calendar.

Hebrew Instruction: Hebrew learning and B’nai Mitzvah prep is individualized, so you make your own schedule! All students in Grades 5-7 will receive one-on-one or small-group Hebrew instruction with our Hebrew teacher. When students begin preparing for their B’nai Mitzvah, they will meet with Cantorial Soloist, Suzanne Guinane, to master their assigned Torah portion and the Hebrew prayers that they will lead during their B’nai Mitzvah service. If you are interested in your child beginning formal Hebrew lessons before 5th grade, please reach out to Rabbi Carlie Daniels at 561-833-8421.
