One of Beth Adam's strengths has always been its approach to Jewish education: it is essential; it is vivid and stimulating; and it is for everyone, children and adults alike. Our educational programming is designed not only to foster learning about Judaism, but also about oneself, and one’s role in the world.

Sunday Religious School
The Beth Adam curriculum relates and celebrates Jewish identity, history, and values, and the challenge of being Jewish in a diverse, modern world.

Weekday Classes
Bar and Bat Mitzvah
Students meet once a week for a two-year period to prepare for their Bar or Bat Mitzvah service. In addition to learning the Hebrew necessary to recite the Torah, each student explores the significance of his or her Torah passage in depth. As part of a guided independent study, students prepare and present research papers to the congregation as part of the ceremony.

Adult Study
Other adult classes and discussion groups meet on mid-week evenings to explore specific topics of mutual interest.
