Hebrew School

The North Shore Hebrew School offers an excit­ing edu­ca­tional expe­ri­ence that encour­ages fam­ily involve­ment and inspires joy and pride in being Jew­ish. Hebrew lan­guage, hol­i­days, cul­ture and tra­di­tion are taught in an inclu­sive setting.

Expe­ri­enced teach­ers and ded­i­cated par­ent vol­un­teers ensure max­i­mum sup­port for our children.

It is our belief that reli­gious edu­ca­tion is best imparted in a part­ner­ship between the syn­a­gogue and the home – there­fore Jew­ish Fam­ily Edu­ca­tion is an inte­gral com­po­nent of our curriculum.

It is the goal of the North Shore Hebrew School to nur­ture each child’s per­sonal and spir­i­tual growth and pro­duce young learn­ers whose strength of char­ac­ter and Jew­ish iden­tity assist them in their com­mit­ment to Jew­ish con­ti­nu­ity and the improve­ment of the world in which we live.

Our intended impacts

Our school philosophy is based on the following premises:

• Jewish education is fun!
• Jewish education is relevant and applicable for the modern family
• Hebrew school connects Jewish families

As an extension from the above premises, our programs offer students an opportunity to:

• Gain a deep knowledge of what it means to be Jewish
• Grow their Jewish identity and develop a pride for being Jewish
• Embrace and practice Jewish values

Classes run for approximately 30 weeks from the beginning of September to the middle of June.
