CORE GOALS AND MISSION
In the Jewish Experience Center, we facilitate meaningful and joyful Jewish experiences and prepare students to be Jewish adults in the world today by:
- Providing opportunities for students to explore and understand how our ancient tradition provides meaning and direction in our lives.
- Educating students about the most foundational parts of our tradition, including history, theology and culture.
- Teaching students the building blocks needed to read Hebrew and recite our Shabbat prayers.
- Giving students opportunities to develop a connection with the people, culture and state of Israel.
- Providing opportunities to experience the joy of celebrating Judaism in community through family programming, Shabbat experiences, retreats and youth group events.
- Developing mensches (good people) by teaching and modeling the values of tzedakah (justice), g'milut chasadim (righteous deeds) and tikkun olam (repairing the world).
