Our
Education goals:
-
To
inspire our learners to see themselves as individual
reflections of God's Image;
-
To
instill a desire to make the world a better place
through expression of Jewish values with a sense of
fulfilling mitzvot;
-
To
enable our children to comfortably participate in
traditional worship services, with a knowledge of Hebrew
and familiarity with the major themes of the Siddur;
-
To
cultivate within our students a strong Jewish identity
through the holidays, rituals and life cycle
celebrations, along with a commitment to Conservative
Judaism and a sense of belonging to the Beth Am family.
