We are nearing the start of a new school year.
It is not too late to send in your Registration forms. If you are one of those who has not yet sent in a form for each of your enrolled children the forms are available through this link: Registration Form.
Please send the Registration Form (one for each child please) ASAP along with a check for $50 for each student. More important, to help us in the short time remaining, please email us so we can include your child's name on the class lists that we will share with the teachers and hand out on the first day of class.
Got a friend looking to enroll their child? Please direct them to this page or print the application for them, and invite them to send their forms in ASAP and to join us one Shabbat evening soon. Also don't forget to put them in contact with our Membership Committee.
Note: on Saturday 9/11 we will be the temple at 9 AM to verify all registrations with you. Please come in a little early that day and stop in to see us so we can make sure we have all of your papers on file.
Thanks as always for your support,

Meet the Teacher
A brief meeting with your child’s teacher on the following dates and times has been scheduled. The meeting should last no more than 30 minutes (if we are able to start on time). We hope that all parents will attend this meeting. Please plan to attend at the assigned time to avoid any delay of class time. It would be advisable to arrive early on your “Meet the teacher” day.
We will assemble as a group in the foyer. Once we are all together we will enter class as a group - this way no one has to miss anything and the teachers don’t have to repeat anything and the kids get the full benefit of our teachers’ time with them. The Rabbi and members of our Education Committee and will also be on hand to talk with the parents and to answer any questions that you have.

Special Events
Not sure what our school Tzedakah project is or who Mike "Grandpa Mikee" Greene is? Please ask your kids and also ask us at the "Meet the Teacher" event.
A great modern nation was built with the help of Tzedakah boxes. Learn how we are using ours: a few coins here or there are helping to fund Birthright Israel so that every Jewish youth can enjoy a free 10 day trip to Israel (ages 18 to 26). Several of our graduates have already enjoyed a free trip.
