Congregation Merkaz Ha-Iyr Education Programs
As a smaller congregation we have the flexibilitiy to try new things and we are doing just that with our religious school program, Limud. If you are interested in learning more or would like your child to shadow on a Sunday morning please contact us: rabbibarb@congregationmerkaz.org.
Education For Children Limud Kindergarten-2nd Grade, 3rd Grade* 10 AM - 12:30 PM Limud Hebrew Learners 3rd Grade (optional*), 4th-7th Grade 9 AM - 12:30 PM We are moving our Wednesday Hebrew classes to Sunday morning by adding an additional hour for our Hebrew study students. Hebrew study will take place from 9:00-10:00a.m. Younger students not attending the Hebrew study period will join us at 10:00a.m., with classes for K-7 ending at 12:30p.m. There will be no LIMUD classes on Wednesday. Our innovative and engaging educational program returned on Sunday, September 11, 2011. This heavily experiential program is focused around a variety of activities designed to turn our kids into educated "mensches" who are eager to incorporate Jewish values into their lives, and who are proud to be Jewish. On Sunday morning, our K-8 program features a variety of experiences including learning Jewish songs, Torah study, art, stories, community mitzvah projects, and special programming for 5th grade and older to learn more about Jewish history including the Holocaust. For the students enrolled in Hebrew Language, our unique Hebrew program for grades 4-7 prepares students for their bar/bat mitzvah service, and gives them the skills and the nurturance to want to become valued members of the Jewish community.
