The Jewish people have treasured books and learning since the beginning. Even our central prayer, the Shema, includes the instruction: “Take these words which I command you this day and teach them faithfully to your children.”

In the Valley and Tucson, there are preschools, day schools and high schools available where students can receive a Jewish education. In addition, most synagogues offer religious school to further build on a child’s Jewish identity.

Informal education is widely available too. Youth groups and camps, both day and overnight, immerse youth in Jewish life. At Jewish camp, children experience various activities from arts to sports, all in a Jewish setting. Jewish values, culture and traditions permeate the campers’ days through song, food, art and dance.
