The Religious School at TBS creates a learning environment with a curriculum designed to nurture and instill within our children a strong sense of pride in heritage, practice, connection to Israel, and observance of Jewish tradition. Together, we can celebrate our children and the world they will both inherit and build.

Shabbat Services
In order for our religious school children and families to have a more meaningful experience, attendance at Friday night services is encouraged. Participation has many benefits for the entire family, including learning prayers, gaining comfort in the sanctuary, singing melodies, and preparing for B'nei Mitzvah. Most importantly, joining services fosters a connection to our broader community.
