Elementary Education Programs (K-5th)

Rishonim

Rishonim is our Sunday morning Jewish Education Program for K-5th Grade. Students are divided by grade level classes with community opportunities to be together in our sanctuary for prayer and singing. Our 2nd - 5th graders choose enrichment electives based on their personal interests. Students also get social time together on our playground. Rishonim includes Family Learning Days, holiday celebrations, Sunday Sandwich Chevre (SSH), and support from our teen Madrichim.

Shabbat Family Jam

Shabbat Family Jam is an opportunity for families with young children ages 0-7 to connect to Jewish life, learning, and friendships at PTBE. Each session begins with a lively, interactive musical Shabbat experience with Cantor Elana and Teacher Alison. This is followed by hands-on learning and craft activity stations, finishing with playtime on the PTBE playground. Shabbat Family Jam can be a great option for children who are not quite ready for Sunday school, or for families who would like to spend time learning, crafting, singing, and praying together!
