We wanted to share an exciting program designed to engage you with the Beth Am Community. 

Drum roll please… JLC Jr: Judaism with Food, Friends and Fun!

Click to register JLC Jr is a free program designed to connect and engage you and your child between preschool and Kindergarten with the Beth Am Community!
 
Rabbi Earne with JLC Jr. students"JLC" is the acronym of our Hebrew School: The Jewish Learning Center. Our school is designed to be fun, interactive, and relationship centered. JLC Jr is designed to be a taste of our program. At JLC Jr we also hope you and your child will gain a sense of the community and friendships that are central to our Jewish educational programs at Beth Am. We hope you will also see the blessings of enjoying a relaxing Sunday morning while your children are with us at Beth Am!

Click to register  What does a day at JLC Jr entail? Like JLC, JLC Jr is on Sundays from 9am - 12pm. Each day at JLC Jr begins with circle time, followed by a Hebrew educational activity. Students then take part in a delicious cooking activity for an upcoming Jewish holiday. Music, break, and snack follow and then Coach Bucky brings students together for games and activities. Each day ends with a closing circle and then pick up.  

Click to register This is a free program open to any child entering kindergarten in September 2025 who is interested in further exploring Jewish education. You do not need to be a member of Beth Am to participate. However, it is required that any student attending JLC Jr have a completed enrollment form submitted to Rabbi Earne prior to class starting.
