The curriculum for the Reconstructionist Havurah’s Sunday school, called the Beit Sefer, was mildly upgraded over the summer, adding a prayer leadership component to this year’s program. The update will mean that students in each of the three mixed-age classrooms will have the opportunity to lead prayers during the Havurah’s monthly Shabbat services throughout the year. The remainder of the curriculum will remain the same, focusing half on ethics and Jewish history, and half on Hebrew, with a brief singing component connecting the two.

The first day of school is Sunday, September 12, with a concurrent orientation for parents, which will include bagels and coffee.
