We explore Jewish religion and culture through a variety of learning approaches, including the use of the arts in learning. In our family-oriented Torah curriculum, parents learn to teach their children the stories of the Torah, and students share their learning with each other and the rest of the congregation. Students learn both Modern Hebrew and traditional Hebrew prayers and blessings. Special events include classes for parents, family dinners and holiday programs. Ohavi Zedek Synagogue's Associate Rabbi, David Steinberg, serves as Principal of the Hebrew School.
