A strong Hebrew and prayer curriculum emphasizes Hebrew as both a sacred and a living language for Jews. At each grade level, students gain increasing competency in prayer skills, reinforced through participation in our Tot Shabbat and Young Leaders Services, and regular congregational services. Through interactive activities, engaging discussion, and formal texts, students learn about holidays, mitzvot, Israel, Jewish history, Torah and philosophy. The learning process is experiential and involves use of all the senses. Music is a regular part of each lesson. Almost every Beth Am student continues in the Religious School following his or her Bar or Bat Mitzvah. Click here to learn about our new service and learning program called Living Jewish Values through Avodah (service) for 8th and 9th graders of Religious School and Day School backgrounds. The Religious School faculty and staff includes some of the area's most engaging educators. We know this, because the students actually say they enjoy coming to Religious School! (Yes, they really do!) Click here to meet our 2009–10 Religious School faculty. Resources for Parents and Students

The
goal of Beth Am's Religious School is to provide students with the knowledge
and experiences that will let them feel comfortable as Jews in the synagogue,
in the larger world, and within themselves. The school places an emphasis
on educating the family as well as the students and provides many programs
throughout the year in which families can learn together.
