Family School/Building Your Jewish Toolkit

The two programs, Family School and Building Your Jewish Toolkit, are held once a month, on Sunday, in conjunction with sessions of Koven Religious School (KRS).

Family School usually begins at 9:30am, when KRS begins. KRS parents (and often also the children) are encouraged to join Family School, both to further their Jewish education and to create community within KRS.

KRS parents are invited to stay after Family School and join in Building Your Jewish Toolkit, a 1-hour class on a topic of importance.

Although aimed at KRS parents (and sometimes children), all are welcome at Family School and also at Building Your Jewish Toolkit.
