Family Education at Shir Heharim
Congregation Shir Heharim-BAJC strives to make a Jewish connection with each child’s spiritual, intellectual, and emotional needs. We offer a solid foundation of Jewish knowledge, the opportunity to develop personal beliefs and connections to Jewish beliefs and traditions, and the understanding that Jewish teachings and values can apply to every aspect of daily life. Our clergy, faculty, and staff seek to inspire a life-long pride in one’s Jewish identity; a love of Jewish learning; an appreciation for holidays, understanding of life cycles, ritual practices, spiritual connection and ethical living. Along with educating our youth, programs strive to create Jewish community amongst families as well. While child centered, both the Tot Shabbat and Yalla Chaverim programs offer involvement for parents as well.
We offer three Family Education programs, Tot Shabbat, Yalla Chaverim, and the Teen Program. Tot Shabbat meets monthly for a kid shabbat and meal and is geared towards toddlers-kindergartners. Yalla Chaverim meets one Shabbat morning and one Sunday afternoon per month and is geared to kindergarten through 7th grade. The Teen Program meets quarterly, including one overnight, and is geared towards 7-10th graders.
We would be excited to welcome you and your family to our school and community.
