Teenage Education
Rapping with the Rabbi
An exciting exchange of ideas
Jewish learning continues for adolescents through their connection in relationships with peers and adults. In our dynamic program, students explore the connection between Judaism and the modern world. Studying alongside peers and Rabbi Stephen Leon, our teens will analyze ancient and modern text, forming a community of Jewish leaders who find themselves at home at the synagogue and with one another. In addition, they will learn relevant stories and moral lessons from the weekly Torah portion that students can apply to their own lives.
This course is open to all post - Bar and Bat Mitzvah students in our community.
Contact the office for more information.
