Enrollment information  

Shalom:

Welcome to Temple Sinai Religious School. Our goals are to help our students:

  • Develop a strong Jewish identity
  • Apply Jewish ethics to daily life
  • Acquire the information and skills needed to become knowledgeable members of the Jewish community

To reach these goals we have created a learning environment that fosters curiosity, creativity, compassion and fostering a sense of Klal Yisrael, a connected Jewish Community. The curriculum consists of the following areas, which are taught in varying degrees in each grade: Holidays, Customs and Ceremonies, Life Cycle events; Theology and Prayer, Ethics and Values; Hebrew and Torah; Israel and Jewish History.

Our objectives are based on the goals of the Reform Movement and enable students to:

  • Celebrate Shabbat, holidays and festivals; recite prayers, learn rituals, symbols and meaning of each holiday
  • Make choices and decisions based on Jewish ethics and values
  • Identify the central themes and ethical messages within the Torah and integrate them into their lives
  • Explore their relationship to God and the role of prayer
  • Participate in Shabbat, High Holy Day and festival services; learn the order of the Shabbat service
  • Read Hebrew and value it as the language that binds the Jewish people together through generations
  • Pray with comprehension, by understanding the general meaning of each prayer
  • Develop a relationship to Israel and learn about its history, geography, and modern life
  • Draw connections between Jewish thought and traditions and their own lives
