Religious School

B’rucheem Habaeem, Welcome back for a wonderful and productive learning year. I hope that everyone had a restful, relaxing, and a safe summer. If you haven’t already filled out your registration forms, please remember to send them in at your earliest convenience.

We have been busy at The Religious School planning for this current year. I have been fortunate enough to have some volunteers working with me at The School. Stream Rashbaum, Hannah and Hunter Goldsmith and David Eskin have been wonderful helpers, and have filled their community service hours while continuing to help out at the Temple. It’s so wonderful to see our young people offering their assistance doing various tasks around the synagogue during their summer vacation.

Our first day of Religious School will begin on Sunday, September 7, 2008 at 9:30 am. The first day of midweek Religious Education Classes will begin on Wednesday, September 10, 2008 at 5:00 pm. Confirmation Classes will begin at 5:30 pm.

We will be engaging in a new program called, “Parent Involvement Day.” This will be held on every third Sunday of every other month. Our first session will be on Sunday, September 21, 2008. Parents are encouraged to attend the morning with their child/ren and participate in the lesson for that day.

Our first “Tot Shabbat” will be held on Saturday, September 13, 2008 at 10:30 am. Rabbi Barras will be working with the children and Amy Shinbaum will be doing a special art project for Rosh Hashanah while the children enjoy a healthy snack. This is a wonderful opportunity forthe children to interact with each other at their own specialized Shabbat service.

Our first “Junior Congregation” will be held on Saturday, September 20, 2008 at 9:00 am. This is a mandatory program. All students in grades 4th through 7th must attend at least seven services throughout the year. This is a great way for our students to become acquainted with the  Saturday morning Shabbat service. This is also a beneficial way for the students to better prepare for their Bar/Bat Mitzvah.

Our newest program this coming year is “Temple Beth El Mommy and Me.” Donna Rivera and I will be the instructors for youngsters 16 months to 2-1/2 years old. This will begin on Monday, September 8, 2008 at 10:30-11:30 am. We are so excited about bringing this program to all of you!! Our schedule will be on Monday mornings from 10:30-11:30 am. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me at 433-9808, or by email, dale.cohen@templebethel.com.

As you can see, we have a variety of programs that will begin in September! I look forward to seeing all of you all fresh and energized for the new school year!

Shanah Tovah . . . have a happy and a healthy New Year.

B’Ezrat Hashem. — Dale M. Cohen, R.J.E.

TBE Religious School PTO
 
Dear Parents,
 
We are looking forward to an exciting and active religious school year.  The PTO will provide support to the many activities that the religious school has to offer our children.  You are cordially invited to attend a brief presentation regarding the upcoming events and the many opportunities available to you with the PTO.  This presentation will take place on the first day of religious school, shortly after “drop-off” in the Dubin Center.  Refreshments will be provided.
 
Let’s get excited and work together for a fun and successful year!   I am looking forward to working with everyone.
 
Warmly,
Lorrie Goldsmith
