Keshet’s Sunday morning programs provide social interaction, hands-on activities, and a Jewish connection. We offer a variety of options for kids, teens, and adults to meet participant’s needs from different communities.
Keshet’s Sunday Schools take place Sep. 18, 2022 – May 21, 2023.
RegisterA Keshet parent once shared, “My son goes to school all week to learn academics. On Sundays, he goes to Keshet to learn to be a good person.” Keshet Sunday School explores topics like kindness, respect, teamwork and community.
Lessons are designed by special education teachers to use visual supports and differentiated instruction. As part of a multisensory experience, each Sunday closes with all students coming together for joyful singing led by fantastic musicians.
Students come from many religious backgrounds and all Jewish denominations. Small classes and a variety of program options allow us to tailor lessons specifically to students’ interests and families’ religious observance.
Social Opportunities & Adult Recreation
A combination of community service and recreation for teens and adults looking for social interaction and community activities.
The Spirit Room is a unique Jewish education opportunity for students with ADHD or ASD. This is a great option for kids who will thrive in small groups with interactive lessons led by an occupational therapist and rabbi.
Keshet staff provide additional and individualized support for inclusion as much as possible. Families do not need to be members to attend Sunday School.
Keshet partners with Anshe Emet to ensure that their faculty and curriculum support diverse learners. Anshe Emet is committed to serving all families regardless of financial circumstances.
