Religious School

Welcome to Temple Bet Yam’s Religious School 

RELIGIOUS SCHOOL TRUSTEE: BARBARA CARMAN

 

MISSION STATEMENT

The mission of Temple Bet Yam’s religious school is to help our children develop a positive Jewish identity based on a knowledge of Jewish culture, tradition, and religion so they can actively participate in Jewish life in the community, synagogue, and their homes.

 

VISION STATEMENT

Our vision is that our children will…

  • apply Jewish rituals, traditions and values to their own lives as they continue to grow wherever life takes them.
  • understand that being Jewish requires a lifelong openness to spiritual, intellectual, emotional and social growth.
  • develop an ever-evolving understanding and relationship with God.
  • understand the need for tikkun olam, repairing the world, through tzedakah, (charity), gemilut hasadim (acts of lovingkindness) and acts of social justice.
  • commitment to being part of a Jewish future by helping to sustain the local, national and international Jewish community.
