About the School Board

October 2009

The School Board is comprised of members of our synagogue who volunteer their time to oversee the functioning of the Religious School. The School Board works with the Rabbi and Religious Committee to set direction for the education of the children, setting policy, conducting curriculum reviews, making personnel recommendations, and planning for the future. The School Board also develops the budget for the school.

The School Board appreciates direct communications from families. Constructive input is used to guide decision-making. Members of the School Board and the Vice President of the Religious School can be reached by calling the Religious School. Remember, we are all part of our synagogue community. The School Board encourages families to assist in maintaining a positive educational environment in and around the school. Children learn best when there is positive reinforcement of learning. The Religious School offers four hours of Jewish education per week and the home and family provides the place to live that learning.

The School Board is planning to send out a summary of minutes of their monthly meetings to the parents. Please don't hesitate to call the School Board with any issues you wish to discuss or any items you may want to add to the agenda.

Thank you for your support.
