Religious School

Beth El Religious School (BERS) aims to inspire a thirst for lifelong Jewish learning. To achieve this ambitious goal, we craft educational experiences that foster:

• an understanding of God
• the ability to personalize the words of Torah
• a familiarity with tefillah (prayer)

We seek to enliven within our students a connection to the State of Israel. We emphasize the practice of gemilut hasadim (deeds of lovingkindness) as the product of all our students have learned about God, Torah, tefillah, and Israel.

Students participate in retreats, social action programs, and elective classes such as cooking, art, and video production. And lively assemblies bring together the community for study sessions and music.
