Education
We believe in a comprehensive Jewish educational experience, ranging from fun, camp-inspired experiential learning to text study. Through our Religious School, Early Childhood and Adult Education programs, we strive to provide students, adults and families with inspired Jewish learning.
From Early Childhood through Grade 12, The Village Temple Religious School offers an educational journey through Jewish history and texts, Hebrew and culture, and ethics and rituals. Our program inspires and empowers our students to realize how Judaism is relevant to their lives, to understand how Jewish ethical principles and commitment to social justice can guide them in their relationships within their families, with God, with friends, and with their larger community.
Our Learning Goals
Our curriculum inspires learners to:
Celebrate Jewish identity and pride through exploration of Jewish history, Hebrew language, and sacred texts

Live Jewish values by engaging in community service and performing acts of Tikkun Olam (repairing the world)
