Becoming a Bar or Bat Mitzvah is a meaningful milestone in the life of a Jewish student. Our B’nai Mitzvah services are filled with music as the student leads most of the service. A highlight is the young person’s address to the congregation, based upon his or her on understanding of the Torah text. Family members are also invited to participate. We are committed to the full inclusion of non-Jewish parents and other family members in the service.
While we regard Bar/Bat Mitzvah as an important milestone in a young person’s religious education, it is not the conclusion. Students are expected to continue in our Lev Learning (religious school) program through the capstone of Confirmation (10th grade).
