Congregation B'Nai Israel's religious school meets three times per month September through May. (See Calendar for dates). Classes accommodate children whose ages span from pre-school to Bar/Bat Mitzvah age. When requested, post-Bar/Bat Mitzvah classes have been arranged.

All teachers are adults with some teaching experience. The school curriculum includes learning about the Jewish holidays; the Torah; current events related to Judaism, Jews, and Israel; and learning Hebrew. Each session includes age-based classroom study and an assembly for all students.

The Religious school has 4 levels. Listed below are the levels, age group for each level, and Hebrew introduced.

Level 1: Preschool, Kindergarten, introducing Hebrew letters
Teacher: Ben Frank

Level 2: 1st and 2nd grades, Hebrew beginning level

Many post-Bar/Bat Mitzvah young adults serve as teacher's assistants. We are so pleased to have them remain committed and involved in our Jewish community!
