Welcome! Our religious school, called Netivot, Hebrew for Pathways, aims to develop a community of children and families with the skills, knowledge, and inspiration to be active members of the Jewish community. Our outstanding faculty consists of experienced teachers who have the education and passion for helping Judaism come alive for their students, making our ancient tradition relevant for the lives of our 21st century Jewish children.
We continue to expand Netivot as we open registration for the 2026-27 School Year. This year, our program will include Kindergarten through 5th-grade students.

Parent Volunteer Opportunities
The work of raising and educating Jewish children cannot be done in the school alone, but is a project of the school, the family and the community. When you come into the building and spend time learning and volunteering with us, you make a powerful statement to your children that Jewish learning is a lifelong process and that we are all on the same team in creating these experiences for them. We have both ongoing and limited engagement volunteer opportunities.
Financial Assistance
Families who have a hardship paying tuition should select the appropriate box when filling out the school registration form. Rabbi Israel will work with your family confidentially to come up with a plan that meets your family’s financial needs. Please know that the synagogue is committed to your child’s Jewish education and identity and will work with you to ensure that finances never prevent a child from attending.
Inclusion Policy
We welcome all children into our school and work with families to try and meet the needs of children with a wide range of learning, social and physical challenges. If your child has a special need, please contact Rabbi Israel and complete the forms as completely as possible.
