Tuition is K-3 $650.00 and 4-7 $1300. There is a sibling discount of 20% off the lower rate. Our vision is to instill within our children a set of Jewish values for them to use as they face the world and the challenges ahead. We will provide them with a variety of experiences within the Jewish community and our students will gain an understanding of where they came from and a connection to their Jewish heritage. It is our goal to empower our young scholars to become life-long learners of the Torah and our various traditions.
At Temple Beth Ami, our program is uniquely designed to accommodate the needs of all types of learners. Our school provides a quality education that encourages the student’s involvement in synagogue and Jewish life.
Our kindergarten-sixth grade Judaica program follows the three tenets of Torah, Avodah, and G’milut chasadim (acts of kindness). Our youth will develop an ongoing dialogue between the words of Torah and their daily lives. Within Avodah, they learn that there is work to be done in order to create sacred connections to G-d, community, and self. Finally, teaching the concepts of G’milut chasadim will help children be personally responsible for making our world a better and more holy place.
Hebrew is moving in a new direction at TBA! We are adopting a self-paced, more individualized approach that allows families to have more flexibility with their child’s learning. Students will work through prayers and rituals through ramot (units). Each ramah students will work through contains 5 activities that include learning to read/chant, grammar and vocabulary. Students will have the opportunity to work in small groups, whole class and individually during each session. The use of technology in and out of the classroom will be a wonderful addition to our program.
Seventh grade is a special year as our students are preparing for their Bar/Bat Mitzvah. Rabbi Blazer works with these students on Jewish American history, Jewish Americans that have impacted their lives, their Torah portions, and each student completes a heritage project to present to their class. Rabbi Blazer makes strong connections with this group which culminates in the phenomenal experience he shares with them at their Bar/Bat Mitzvah.
The focus for our seventh graders in Hebrew is both individualized to meet the needs they have for their upcoming Bar/Bat Mitzvah, as well as to become more familiar with the variety of services and rituals that are a part of this lifecycle event. All students will be well prepared to pray in a congregational worship setting and/or lead a religious service.
There will also be a new Madrichim program that will be open to 8-12th grade student to tutor current students in the Hebrew program. If interested, please click on the link below for the application to apply.
Be on the lookout for our many events this year including our weekly school-wide community tefillah service, Tu B’Shevat and Passover seders, Israeli Independence Festival, field trips and other special programming!
The Religious School Handbook for families will be available shortly. Please check back in mid-August. Online registration will also be available soon. Please be patient as we make some new and exciting updates to our programming.
To make a school successful it takes the community. We will be looking for parent/grandparent volunteers to help this year, and also for our amazingly talented members of the community who have expertise in cooking, Israeli dancing, art, etc... to help with programming.
