​

The rite of passage (Bar and Bat Mitzvah) for coming of age in the Jewish tradition marks a significant step toward Jewish responsibility for fulfilling Mitzvot and continuing on the journey to lifelong Jewish learning.

 

Accordingly, the Bar and Bat Mitzvah is not an end but a part of the means for creating strong, meaningful and powerful commitment to the Jewish Community.

 

By attending Hebrew School, regular attendance at Shabbat Services and becoming a Bar or Bat Mitzvah on our bima, we feel confident that all our students will be well on their way to a life of Jewish commitment and learning.
