Religious School
The Mitzner Family Religious School (MFRS) fosters the development and ongoing growth of Jewish identity for everyone in our programs: children, parents, and teachers. The cornerstones of MFRS are faith in God, love of Torah, and identification with the Jewish people and Israel through involvement in the synagogue and Jewish life.
Religious School
The Mitzner Family Religious School (MFRS) is where kids come every week to learn, connect, and build their Jewish identity — and genuinely love doing it. The religious school has over sixty students, not counting the preschool, which means that your child will make friends but not get lost in the crowd.
Ages/Grades: Pre-K through 10th grade. Madrichim (teenage helpers) continue through 12th grade.
When: Sundays during the school year (August–May)
Religious School is part of a full Jewish journey at Temple Kehillat Chaim — children may start at Seeds of Wonder, a Jewish preschool at Temple Kehillat Chaim that starts at 12 weeks old, through Religious School, to Bar/Bat Mitzvah and our Chai 5 Confirmation program for teens. We also have three youth groups for elementary, middle, and high school kids.
