GENERAL FAQs

Can you explain more about life cycle events in the curriculum? My kid(s) told me they are going to be attending one. 

Anshe Emet strives to provide authentic experiences rather than simulations.  We want each child to attend and participate in lifecycle events (bris/baby naming, conversion, wedding, shiva minyan) rather than simply learning about them. In 3rd-7th grade your student will be invited to be part of the community by playing a role in a life-cycle event for an Anshe Emet member.  Our educators seek families who are enthusiastic about opening up their events and homes to our students.  This is what being in Jewish community is all about!

What else can my child do to stay involved at the synagogue?

Our amazing youth groups offer active opportunities for students of all ages to engage in fun, camp-like activities including sports, outings, retreats, and more! For example, at Shabbat is Awesome (monthly Shabbat afternoon hang-outs for children and families) basketball, soccer, ga-ga, crafts, board games, and more take center stage. Our youth groups go ice skating, play basketball, attend baseball games, and do other fun activities. To learn more contact Chloe Bain at cbain@ansheemet.org

Are children required or encouraged to attend Shabbat services outside of religious school?

The only way to become familiar and comfortable with Jewish prayer is to make it a regular part of your family’s life. We strongly encourage families to regularly attend the many different youth and family prayer services which Anshe Emet offers.

My kid is struggling with Hebrew / my kid is far ahead of the pack in Hebrew, what’s the plan for meeting his/her needs? 

Each student is so different! Every child will work with students at a similar Hebrew level. We meet kids where they are and together move forward!   Students who are struggling or soaring will be offered tailor-made approaches to meet their needs.
