Youth Education
​​
At Beth Hillel, our educational programs are first-class, with a programs for children that start with tot shabbat and family services, and continue through the teen years where many high school students serve as Aides in our religious school. Our goal is to provide for a lifetime of Jewish learning.
Our youth are an inspiration, actively shaping the future of our congregation. Many participate in local and national reform movement youth groups, (often taking on leadership roles), and the majority of our students attend summer camp at OSRUI. Many of our teens have gone on to be NFTY and Temple Youth Group advisors, song leaders, and summer camp counselors through URJ affiliated camps.
Religious School
​
The curriculum of our Religious School places a strong emphasis on your child's growth in Jewish life. The students in our school come from a diverse spectrum of backgrounds. We have classes for Pre-K to 10th grade.
With a dynamic and interactive curriculum, we meet the student where they are and teach them to become comfortable as an active participant in the Jewish community. Our students are regularly scheduled to help lead and add to our Shabbat services. Holidays, history and Hebrew are explored through stories, music, prayer, art and food.

We encourage youth to attend Jewish overnight camps, including Olin San Ruby, and provide generous scholarship to help ensure our students can attend.
