Jewish Educational Choices After Levine Academy
Options for Jewish education during high school years abound in our community. Don’t allow your child’s formal Jewish education to end simply because he/she is graduating from Levine Academy. Imagine the world of knowledge lost to them if they were to end their secular studies at the end of 8 th grade! Please allow your children to continue to grow in their Jewish knowledge as they become young adults - a strong faith identity will give them confidence and comfort in the years to come.
Congregational Programs:
C ongregation Anshai Torah- meets Sunday mornings DeReKH, Hebrew for pathway, is a collaboration between Congregations Anshai Torah, Beth Torah, and Shearith Israel offering our 7th-12th grade students a top-notch educational experience and meaningful opportunities to create friendships and memories they will cherish for a lifetime. Each Sunday morning, they will share as a group of more than 100 fellow students from our three congregations and beyond. More than a high school program, it is a kehillah - a community of bright, committed, young hearts and minds - dedicated to building a vibrant Jewish future for the next generation. Temple Shalom- meets Sundays and Wednesdays 8th through 12th graders are invited to attend our Next Dor drop-in learning classes. In 12th grade, students will prepare for Confirmation.

Details about specific sessions coming soon to the Temple Shalom website. Temple Emanu-El Youth engagement programs through Youth Emanu-El and Teen Emanu-El give students the chance to build relationships, grow Jewishly and continue their involvement in Jewish life.
