Temple Emanuel Relgious School educates students beginning in Kindergarten through grade 7. Our goal is to educate and guide students so they will have the ability to feel comfortable in a synagogue service and feel connected to the larger worldwide Jewish community.
Each grade is a step among the path of discovery, drawing release from the prayers and Torah stories that enable the students to personalize their Jewish journey. Our Tefilah program provides a comfortable setting where students can gain confidence and skill in leading religious services. Becoming a Bar/Bat Mitzvah is the next level of learning where our students develop the knowledge to implement the responsibilities of a young adult Jew.
Our educational program is geared to meet the needs of each individual and address students' specific learning styles. We are an inclusive community that provides multi-sensory learning opportunities for all, including special needs educators on staff.
