A major part of the Judaics curriculum is devoted to the study of Torah. Creating a school environment which will enable our students to develop spiritually through their knowledge of our traditions is of primary importance. Parshat HaShavuah is an integral part of our Torah studies. Our kindergarten through second grade students learn the portion of the week through discussion, drama, songs and stories. In-depth study of B'reisheet begins in the first grade and continues through third grade.
Study continues through to the Book of Numbers in the sixth grade.
Formal Torah study expands when the student enters third grade with the beginning of the stories of Abraham. The study of Torah commentary begins with the reading of Rashi script, and the students get involved with the methods of our Rabbis. I in the 6th grade. The goal of our tefilah is to familiarize the students with the individual prayers, their melodies and meaning. The structure of the service, and the organization of the siddur, are an integral part of the tefilah experience.
