Beit Midrash for Children
A Unique Hebrew School Experience
At the Shaare Zedek Beit Midrash for Children, we recognize that a traditional Jewish education for our children is a key element in creating knowledgeable and committed members of the Jewish community. We strive to infuse our students with a love of Judaism and work with them to develop their personal Jewish identities.
Through attendance in the Beit Midrash, students will gain valuable knowledge about the Jewish tradition, ritual and text, develop synagogue skills that will enable and encourage participation in tefillot, and create positive connections to Judaism.
BMC students:
- Acquire the skills and knowledge needed to participate in Jewish life
- Learn prayer book and modern Hebrew in creative and participatory ways
- Develop a strong Jewish identity that is deeply rooted in the textual heritage of the Jewish tradition
The BMC offers:
- Small Classes
- Warm Synagogue Community
- Strong Hebrew Curiculum
- Nurturing Teachers
- Creative Learning
At Shaare Zedek we see our Shabbat morning minyanim as a natural extension of the Beit Midrash for Children. We hope that all of our students will join us on Shabbat mornings.
