Religious School

GENERAL INFORMATION

Even though the 2020-2021 TIRS school year is going to look a little different, our goals for your child's Jewish education remain the same. TIRS is a warm, inviting place where children are encouraged to explore their Jewish traditions and heritage. We take pride in working with families to strengthen each child’s Jewish identity and connection to the greater Jewish community. We hold Jewish learning, worship, and community as central values. Our desire is that students will have a WONDERFUL, FUN experience at TIRS, and they will continue on a path of lifelong learning. 

We have a strong and dedicated staff of educators, who delight in mixing formal and informal Jewish educational techniques to bring thousands of years of history and traditions alive.

* Differentiated learning for extra help or accelerated instruction is available to ALL TIRS students.

TIKVAH CHARLOTTE

Our tradition teaches that each of us is created B’tzelem Elohim, in the image of God, and that each of us is to be valued. TIKVAH Charlotte is a joint special needs religious school program between Temple Israel and Temple Beth El. This program provides individual and group learning in Hebrew and Judaica and is geared for students who have difficulties in attending mainstream classes.

If your child has specialized educational needs and you are interested in finding out more information about TIKVAH Charlotte, please contact Rabbi Kornsgold.
