Youth Programs
Shearith Israel provides a diverse program for our children of all ages in the congregation. Our families come from many varied backgrounds and have the opportunity to participate in many educational programs.
Little Ones – Tot Shabbat & K’Tonton
At Shearith Israel, your little ones are always welcome. Please note: Currently, amidst the pandemic, we are not gathering for Tot Shabbat or K'tonton. We have babysitting on Saturday mornings, and offer Tot Shabbat every Shabbat morning at 10:30am in the Multi-Purpose Room.
We are also offering a K’Tonton Pre-School Program one Sunday morning each month from 10:30am – 11:45am.
Kadima
As part of the national Kadima movement in Conservative Judaism, our 6th through 8th graders have a Kadima group that meets monthly for activities and learning. Usually based around a social function, programming includes religious, educational, and social-action activities. Programs include movies, ice skating, pool parties, rock climbing, and other social, engaging events.

USY
United Synagogue Youth (USY) is Conservative Judaism’s premier youth group, run by its parent organization, USCJ, for teenagers in 9th through 12th grades. Through year-round programming and domestic and international travel opportunities, USY provides meaningful, immersive Jewish experiences, helping teens integrate Jewish rituals and values into their everyday lives. Past programming has included social justice initiatives, challah baking for charity, an overnight “lock-in” at the shul, Israel-focused events, teen Shabbat, conventions, and more. For info and to register, visit our USY page.
MASA
MASA, which means “Journey” in Hebrew, is Shearith Israel’s post-B’nai Mitzvah class. MASA creates an enduring understanding for our participants that our history requires us to make a difference in the world through Torah (learning), avodah (worship), and gemilut chasadim (acts of lovingkindness). The class meets with Rabbi Kaiman, Nancy Gorod, and guest speakers, and travels to New York for an unforgettable, formative educational experience.
Life Yeshiva
Life Yeshiva is a new series of classes for teens offered in 2020 - 2021. The class is open to all 10th graders in the community. Join us for this wonderful learning opportunity with teen educator Joey Heyman!
