Who We Are:
At the Sylvia Rosenblatt Hebrew School, we make learning about Judaism so exciting and fun, it doesn’t feel like “school” at all! We take pride in creating positive experiences for our youth that instill a love for Judaism. Classes take place on Sundays from September through June, from 9:45am to 12:30pm, on our campus.

Our Mission:

The Sylvia Rosenblatt Hebrew School is dedicated to fostering spiritual growth and a love of Judaism in children of all ages and from all backgrounds. We create a nurturing and joyous environment where kids can learn about the Torah, grow in their faith, create new friendships, and build community. It is our philosophy that creating an open environment that invites engagement, friendship, and dialogue is the best way to create a loving and lasting connection to Judaism. We have succeeded when our Youth grow their love and knowledge of Judaism together as a community.
