Field trips are also an integral part of our Hebrew High School program. Our curriculum stresses Holocaust studies, Mishnah, Talmud, Jewish Ethics, Comparative Religion and leadership skills. The class encourages discussion and questions about these issues and modem Jewish life. The classes meet on Sunday mornings. Family Shabbat Services - where our students from Aleph through Hebrew High School participate in the conduct of Shabbat Services in our Kogan Family Sanctuary.
Parents attend with their children and honors are distributed to all.
A luncheon follows for parents and children which generates a special closeness and camaraderie for our school families. These sessions are age-appropriate and help to make the synagogue experience a positive one for our youngest students. Three times during the school year, a Family Shabbaton will be held. It will include a brief creative Family Kabbalat Shabbat Service on Friday evening, to be followed by Shabbat Dinner, complete with ruach shel Shabbat - spirited Shabbat activities. The program will continue with the Junior Congregation Service on the following morning.
