Religious School

Through play, movement, song, art, storytelling, and technology, Samuel M. Melton Religious School students in kindergarten through seventh grade become familiar with the age-old rituals and traditions that make up our modern Jewish faith, culture, and heritage. We also focus on siddur (prayer book) and daily Hebrew vocabulary to ensure all students can connect spiritually to prayer and Jewish communities around the world.
