Curriculum

We have a three-year curriculum: “Sacred Time” (learning about the Jewish calendar: Shabbat and holidays, and lifecycle events); “Sacred Space” (Learning about life in Israel, in other Jewish communities around the world, and the sacred spaces of home, synagogue and our bodies); and “Sacred Action” (the mitzvot, and the ethical teachings of Judaism). We invite you to learn with your children, to embody our community’s goal of fostering an environment that encourages and supports lifelong learning. Family education is central to Beth El: we have many events throughout the year where families learn together; we have other events where kids are learning in one classroom and their parents are learning in another. Please let us know what you are interested in learning and how we can support your own Jewish journey.
