Chabad Hebrew School offers a warm and lively Jewish atmosphere where children can attain a unique and exciting awareness of their Jewish identity.
Indeed, a child equipped with a Torah education and a feeling for Judaism’s beautiful teachings, traditions and historical lessons, is a child better equipped to face the awesome moral challenges of today’s society.
Our school’s most underlying approach is for the children to enjoy the time spent at Hebrew School so that they are left with positive feelings and fond memories of their Jewish education. Our program is thus carefully blended with songs, games, incentives, arts and crafts, dramatics, field trips, family celebrations and other exciting co-curricular activities.
We encourage you, as a parent to get involved, ask questions and keep in touch with our school. You may very well discover that your child’s Hebrew School education at Chabad will add an enriching spiritual dimension to the lives of your entire family.
