AFTER-SCHOOL EXPERIENTIAL JEWISH EDUCATION AT JCP
JCP Downtown’s Hebrew School Project activates a child’s love to draw, sing, play, imagine, create and problem solve through a Jewish lens. Together with experienced and caring teachers, students explore the connection between Jewish stories and traditions and their own lives. Classes meet once a week for grades K to 5, and a monthly Hebrew School Juniors class prepares children in Pre-K (ages 4 to 5.5 years) to begin Hebrew School when they enter Kindergarten. In 6th Grade, students continue their journey into Project Bet, JCP’s B’nai Mitzvah Experience.
Limited spaces are available – register today!
