What’s Next in Religious School Education

With JTS alumni Alex Weinberg, Danielle Alexander, Samantha Isenstein, and Miles Roger

Part of the series, “Changemakers: Conversations with JTS Alumni Creating the Jewish Future”

Thursday, May 6
4:00-5:00 p.m. ET

Because American Jewish families rely on synagogues to educate their children, religious schools must be excellent. Join us for a conversation with four innovative leaders who are reimagining learning and engagement in synagogue religious schools as we discuss: What new approaches nurture Jewish identity? How do we create deep, joyful Jewish connections?

This discussion is for educators, parents, and anyone interested in Jewish education.
