Tribeca Torah, the Tribeca Synagogue Hebrew School provides families with the opportunity to give their children a Jewish education in a warm, intimate and creative setting.

The one-day-a-week school offers a thorough grounding in Jewish culture and knowledge, and fosters positive Jewish identification. Synagogue membership is welcomed but not required in order to attend Hebrew School.

The curriculum includes language skills in prayer-book Hebrew, familiarization with major prayers and blessings, as well as Jewish culture, holidays and rituals. Our younger students learn through a family-oriented model, while the older students have a creative and challenging curriculum. Our program currently includes pre-kindergarten through seventh grade, and is staffed by warm and caring teachers.

Classes are held on Mondays and start between 3:30 and 4:00. All students are welcomed with a snack. They then divide into small classes by age group, meeting for an hour and a half. Each class spends about half their time on Hebrew and the other half on Judaica. Our calendar includes holiday celebrations for Hanukah, and a model Passover Seder. Students might create special items to help celebrate holidays such as groggers before Purim or seder plates prior to Passover.
