Religious School Religious School Our philosophy toward religious education as well as the scope and sequence of our curriculum are based upon the Goals of Reform Jewish Education and suggestions from Rabbi Lawrence N. Mahrer and Debi Mahrer Rowe in their book A Guide to Small Congregation Religious Schools . Our curriculum is designed to provide students with a basic Jewish education, covering a wide range of topics over the years each student spends in religious school.
Hebrew instruction is focused on liturgical Hebrew.
The curriculum is divided into five content areas in addition to Hebrew. These content areas are God, Torah, Israel, Celebrations, and Ethics. A description of what is to be covered at each grade level is available from the Religious School Coordinator. In addition to our dedicated teams of volunteer teachers, we look forward to having our student rabbi meet with the children at the religious school on each of his visits to Ogden this year.
