Rabbi Stuart Gershon Teen Program

Rabbi Stuart Gershon Teen Program

"This has been a phenomenal year for my son at Temple Sinai. He has grown spiritually, solidified his Jewish roots, and had so many rich, memorable experiences with his peers. And the L’Taken Social Justice seminar in Washington DC wasn't just a highlight of his year, it was a significantly moving event that strengthened his connection to the Jewish community and I'm certain will stay with him as he enters adulthood."

~Parent of Current Temple Sinai High School Student

Temple Sinai is excited to announce a new model for the Rabbi Stuart Gershon Teen Program for 8th-12th Graders!

 

 This year’s program will include engaging learning opportunities in and out of the building, more flexibility and choice, plus an immersive experience (a fun, educational, and community-building trip!) for each age cohort.

  2. Madrichim:  In this Jewish leadership experience, teens serve as classroom assistants, working with younger children during the early session of religious school on Sundays.
