Family Education

“The synagogue must focus its energies upon the family…help parents recover their roles as singers of songs and tells of tales, reclaim their generative power to create memories and to answer questions.”  – Rabbi Harold Schulweis.

The family education programs at Temple Israel provide all members of the family the opportunity for a meaningful Jewish experience. The goal of Family Education at Temple Israel is to inspire parents to continue learning and teaching Jewish values and practices at home. We strive to help engage and empower families to participate more fully in an active Jewish life, and to involve family members in their children’s Jewish education so that the whole family can support and enhance their Jewish experience. Look for future family education programs in your mailbox and on the web!
