TEMPLE RODEF
SHALOM
RELIGIOUS SCHOOL

Be a part of
our family!
Our dynamic Religious
School lays the foundation for lifelong Jewish learning
and Living.
Our Educational
Philosophy
We are
committed to meeting 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. Jewish learning
needs to be engaging, personally meaningful, and
should inform the day to day life of each student.
Our K-12 Program
The Temple Rodef Shalom Religious
School offers a dynamic 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.
We utilize 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.
Our curriculum focuses on Torah, Avodah (Jewish
worship and spirituality), G'milut Chassadim (Jewish
values and social justice), holidays and customs, and Israel. We teach Hebrew
reading and prayer skills with an emphasis on creating personal
connections to the themes of our prayers. We
encourage learning within the context of the family and consider
parents an integral part of our education program.
