Our Educational Philosophy

Education Schedule 2024/25

As an innovative, modern, and exciting Jewish community, Congregation Or Ami is committed to creating youth programs that are relevant and adapted to today’s Jewish learners.

• Kesher means “connection,” and our Kesher Program is designed to foster deep connections among K-6th grade students. By consolidating Judaica and Hebrew learning, we have created an easier schedule for families, while maintaining the same fun, engaging atmosphere for students to learn and grow.

MAKOM and MAKOM HIGH (formerly known as HUB) provide community and connection to 7th-12th graders. In addition to strengthening their social bonds, teens gain leadership skills by expanding their minds and opening their hearts.

2024-2025 School Year

Kesher will begin on September 10th and 11th.
Makom will begin on September 25
