“It is a tree of life to all who grasp it, and whoever holds on to it is happy;
its ways are ways of pleasantness, and all its paths are peace.” (Proverbs 3:17-18)
Youth Engagement
One of our priorities at Temple Sholom is to offer opportunities for our young people to meaningfully connect with each other, the synagogue, and with the broader community.
Noar Shalom & Chavrei Shalom Junior Youth Groups
Several times each year we invite students in 3rd-5th and 6th-8th grades to gather for fun programs and volunteer opportunities that are part of the Temple community. Chavrei Shalom refers to students in 3rd-5th grades. Noar Shalom refers to students in 6th-8th grades. We hope you will join us for these amazing offerings.
Orr Shalom – High School Youth Group
Our youth group for teens (9th-12th grade) is led by our Orr Shalom High School Youth Executive Board and participates in monthly social action projects, social events, and Temple events. Members of our youth group represent our youth at congregational events and committee meetings, and work as Madrichim (teaching assistants) in the Religious School. Many also participate in Crown Family High School.
Weeknight Kef (fun) Club
3rd-7th graders have the opportunity to socialize, play games, or create art in our “Kef (fun) Club” with our Family & Youth Engagement Associate before Midweek Religious School on Wednesdays. Pizza and snacks are provided each week for all students registered.
