Education

Temple Beth Sholom embraces the long-established Jewish commitment to lifelong study and intellectual growth.  Our warm and welcoming congregation offers a rich and diverse series of study and learning opportunities for every stage in life.

Temple Beth Sholom Innovative School

The Temple Beth Sholom Innovative School is an early learning center that begins as early as 8 weeks with our Infant/Toddler Level, extends through our Foundation Level, and then on to our Elementary Level. In addition to our daily educational programming, we also offer After-School Enrichment, Parent-Child classes and Camp.

jLAB

The School for Living Judaism and Beth Sholom Temple Youth (BESTHY) have now combined to create our new jLAB program. Powered by both the School for Living Judaism and Beth Sholom Temple Youth (BESTHY), jLAB is a program that provides children and teens the foundation, inspiration, and opportunities to develop into intellectually, spiritually, and emotionally strong people. We offer an extensive B’nei Mitzvah program with online learning opportunities that accompany in-classroom study and participation.

Adult Study

For adult study we provide varied courses and study options, including classes addressing a theme, a specific group of texts or a book and ongoing sessions devoted to delving into Torah and rabbinic texts. We often host lectures and presentations on subjects of interest to our community and established courses requiring sustained commitment. If you are looking for something more tailored, we have specific tracks of study including chevruta.

We hold that the command to “teach them diligently” applies equally to all.  Our Jewish educational opportunities are open to everyone who desires to participate. We follow the instructions of Hillel who commented to one who questioned the essence of belonging to the Jewish People, “Go and study.”

We welcome your questions and interest regarding our educational schools and programming. Please contact us for more information at 305.538.7231.
