Our Hebrew school focuses on interactive learning. Learning about holidays and mitzvot can be a breeze when they’re made interactive. At our Hebrew School, we use innovative teaching methods including games, role-playing, and multimedia presentations to keep students engaged. Arts and crafts are a fundamental part of our program. We encourage creativity through hands-on projects which allow students to express their artistic talents while also learning about Jewish history, Torah stories, holidays, and mitzvot. From building sukkot to acting out the Chanukah story, our students get to experience the joy of Jewish traditions firsthand. Jewish pride is at the heart of what we do.

Through storytelling, discussions, and community events, we help our students connect with their roots and develop a strong Jewish identity. We provide a welcoming and inclusive environment where stu-
