What makes JLC GREAT? At the JLC, we strive to nurture Jewish minds, inspire Jewish actions, and ignite Jewish spirits within a dynamic, engaging, and caring community. We look forward to having your child(den) join us for an inspiring, joyful and music-filled year. Community: Each classroom is a kehillah (community) of Jewish learners asking questions in a safe space, learning to be proud Jews, and doing mitzvot (good deeds). Experienced Teachers: Our teachers have between 6 and 20 years of classroom experience and bring a wide range of expertise to the JLC. Experiential, Multi-sensory Learning: Teachers use a variety of teaching methods to engage students on every level, including: embracing Jewish history as our shared family story, learning Hebrew through games and yoga, participating in StorahTelling (using creative dramatics in Torah study), creating Torah diagrams, and chevrutah (paired) study. Students also participate in many social action projects. Our JLC students are engaged in active learning while receiving a fun, fulfilling and engaging Jewish education.

We enter the Thanksgiving holiday focused on a week that was highlighted by tragedy. There were violent mass shootings at an LGBTQ night club in Colorado Springs, CO and at a Wal-Mart in Chesapeake, Virginia. And we awoke this morning to learn of two bombings at bus stops in Jerusalem, that left one dead and dozens injured, a reminder of the bus bombings that happened throughout Israel during the intifada. We are left wondering how to give thanks when the world seems so broken, when our brothers and sisters are being slain at home and in Israel. We mourn the loss of innocent life and pray for a world without such hatred and violence. As we prepare for Thanksgiving, we not only give thanks for the blessings that each of us experience in our lives every day. We recommit ourselves to building a more peaceful world without bombings and shootings, a world without violence, a world where everyone can give thanks. May the memories of those whose lives were lost be for a blessing. - Rabbi Jesse Olitzky and Rabbi Rachel Marder ... See MoreSee Less
