Temple Youth Education

Sunday School Statement of Philosophy: 

Our Religious School curriculum is based on a triennial cycle, alternating annually between a focus on Torah, Nevi'im, and Kehtuvim. Using the same rotation, we support the primary texts using alternating lenses of Torah, Avodah, and G’milut Chasadim. Through experiential education, our program cultivates knowledge of Jewish texts, mitzvot, mussar, prayer, history, observances, values, and culture while also fostering a love of Judaism, a sense of belonging, and an appreciation for community. 

 

Program Structure: 

Our Sunday School takes place each Sunday from 10:00am to noon. The year is broken into 5 modules, comprised of 5 sessions each.  Each classroom brings together a cohort of learners from multiple grades, creating a space that emphasizes growth, mentorship, and connections. Each classroom is led by two teachers and, when possible, one madrich(a).  

The first Sunday of a module begins with a 25-minute prayer service for all of our students and their families. All other Sundays include a 20-minute music class for each class. Additionally, each week students participate in a school-wide craft or project to emphasize the learning theme of the week.
