School Calendar 2006-07
The Jewish Outreach Center is an innovative school that provides a serious yet
enjoyable environment for children to receive a broad knowledge of Judaism in a
stimulating and challenging venue. Our students gain an appreciation for the
joys, values and traditions of our heritage as they are vividly brought to life
by our dedicated and enthusiastic teachers whose creativity and dynamism make
every lesson a unique learning experience.
Language
Our
students become familiar with the Hebrew alphabet, learn to read, and become
accustomed to Hebrew vocabulary. This subject also familiarizes our students
with the Siddur- Prayer Book, allowing them to feel comfortable in the
Synagogue.
Torah
This
subject offers an overview of the weekly Torah portion, its highlights and
practical lessons relevant to our day and age.
History
We
take our students from Creation to modern-day Israel including the Exodus from
Egypt, The Ten Commandments and the era of the Prophets and Kings. We also focus
on Jewish life in medieval times, the Spanish Inquisition, the Holocaust and
Jewish Heroes of Yesteryear.
Holidays
Lessons
on each Jewish holiday with hands-on demonstrations fill the calendar as we
proceed from Rosh Hashana through the holiday of Shavuot.
Jewish Values
Perhaps the most important component of a Jewish
education is the understanding that our religion is based on a G-d given set of
values and ethics. Our students learn the Mitzvot and gain an appreciation for
their relevance in the 21st century.
Arts
and Crafts

homeland. A land that is truly the “Promised Land”, both spiritually and
physically.
