Synagogue and
Family Partnership
Families will meet with a teacher to create a
learning plan that meets the students’ needs. We
also understand that parents' ability to be
involved will vary from family to family, so we will
tailor the plan to meet parents’ needs as well.

It will be roughly the same amount of learning
as our regular CBI program (approx. 12 hours
per month), but it will be more flexible.

Offerings include: virtual learning, family field
trips, social action and acts of kindness projects,
independent learning, short community
gatherings, and in-person classes if we can do
them safely.
