Our dynamic Religious School lays the foundation for lifelong Jewish learning and Living!

 

Our Educational Program

The Temple Rodef Shalom Religious School offers a comprehensive program for grades Kindergarten through 12. Our program emphasizes small classes and warm relationships, where our students will develop a positive Jewish identity through a personally engaging exploration of Judaism. The program is based on the concept of a spiral curriculum, which builds upon what students have learned in the past and introduces new concepts and ideas appropriate to the students’ cognitive development. We emphasize learning within the context of the family and consider parents an integral part of the education program.

 

Our Educational Philosophy

Our school is committed to providing K-12 Jewish learning that is engaging and personally meaningful.  We believe that Jewish learning should inform the day to day life of each student.  We strive to meet the needs of each student through fostering Jewish identity, strengthening a sense of community and providing the educational background to begin a lifetime of contemporary Jewish living based in Jewish values. Temple Rodef Shalom strives to provide Jewish Education in accordance with the guidelines set by the Reform Movement.
