When children are ready for Bar/Bat Mitzvah training, CJA will lay the foundation for a meaningful ceremony. Private tutoring is arranged and the rabbi is available for consultation regarding all aspects of this special day. read less

Our curriculum revolves around guiding the students to become knowledgeable and committed American Jews. The religious school trains its students to successfully participate in Bar/Bat Mitzvah services, however, our view is that the students' Jewish education does not end with Bar/Bat Mitzvah; but continues into their adult life. For this reason, we promote family educational programs whenever possible, and concentrate on areas that are relevant to the age and level of the child, rather than attempting to teach them “everything” prior to Bar/Bat Mitzvah. read less
