JUDA Hebrew School
Judaism through the Arts for children in grades K - 8th grades.
JUDA in a Nutshell
As its name suggests, we teach Judaism through the Arts. Through cooking, drama, song, dance, and creative expression, we introduce children to their beautiful Jewish heritage and give them the pride, joy, and tools to embrace their Jewish identity.
We believe that children learn best through interactive experiences and hands-on discovery.
JUDA offers an upbeat, inspiring, and engaging Jewish educational experience. Using specialized curricula and innovative Hebrew-reading methodologies, we are empowering the next generation of Jewish superheroes.
At JUDA, children are encouraged to ask questions and take an active role in their Jewish journey. They explore Hebrew language, holidays, history, culture, and community with friends and teachers who bring learning to life through our signature hands-on approach.
This year—give your child the JUDA experience!

OUR STAFF
JUDA Hebrew School prides itself on its dedicated team of staff. Our teachers and volunteers are hand-picked for their warmth, passion and desire to impart their love and knowledge of Judaism to their students. Each one has completed teacher training in classroom management, engaging teaching techniques, and safety, so every child has a fun, meaningful, and secure learning experience.
“As a mom of three and someone who absolutely loved teaching in six Hebrew schools, I know how important it is for children to connect to Judaism in a way that feels real and joyful. Watching students light up as they discover the beauty and depth of their heritage inspired me to create JUDA. My passion is bringing Judaism to life — making it exciting, meaningful, and relevant, so every child walks away feeling proud of who they are and inspired by their roots. JUDA is built around that vision: hands-on, love-filled learning that sparks a lifelong connection.
This is only the beginning of something so grand and magical. Thank you for being part of it from the very start. I am so excited!”
