Description
Aleph Bet provides a challenging Jewish and secular education to its students in grades K - 5. The faculty is committed to meeting the highest standards of general education, conforming to and exceeding all state guidelines for academic achievement, while also providing a solid foundation in Judaic learning and Judaic cultural education.
Aleph Bet students study Torah, t’filah, customs, values, and the Hebrew language, developing communication and comprehension skills that will allow the students to participate fully in prayer services and Jewish holidays, read Hebrew texts- both religious and secular- and converse in the classroom and beyond. The study of Torah, t’filah, and mitzvot is organized to help our students realize that being Jewish is not separate from being American, but is interconnected and complementary.
