Tomorrow (Thursday) is our last day of Religious School before Passover. See calendar below, but we only have 3 more weeks of Religious School after Passover! Wow has time flown! We hope to see you at our Passover Play(ground) Time (come after school!), and adults at our Chaverim Backyard Bash in May. Please also save the date: Sunday, May 19 @ 11 am for our end-of-year Family Kehillah to end Religious School together!
Additionally, you can access kid-friendly Passover resources from PJ Library here, and from Hadar here.
Finally, we have been really busy in Religious School in March and April! See what your children have been learning by reading our highlights. Click here to read them!
