Hebrew School

Baruchim haba’im!

We welcome you and your children to the Marlboro Jewish Center Hebrew School.  We are delighted that you have given us the opportunity to partner with you in the venture of v’shinantam l’vanecha, “teaching (Torah) diligently to your children.”  With great enthusiasm and humility, we enter this brit, this covenant of bringing Jewish learning more fully into your lives and the lives of your children. We are firmly committed to the creation of a warm, respectful and safe environment in which we can learn and grow together as a community.  We all must see ourselves as responsible to ensure that Marlboro Jewish Center is a place that gives life to the values that we learn in Torah—kavod (respect), rachamim (compassion), and chesed (kindness).

Our program begins with children of the first grade and extends all the way through High Hebrew High, grade 12.  We pride ourselves on a creative, experienced staff whose love of Judaism is shown in every class throughout the year.  We have a “hands-on” curriculum that reflects current teaching styles and classroom management skills.

As Co-Directors we encourage your input and feedback and look forward to meeting with you at any time to discuss issues that pertain to your child.  We value your participation and hope that you will consider being active and an integral part of our school program.

Our schedule of classes for the school year includes all grades 1-12.

We can be reached at (732)536-2303, ext 113 or via email at principals@mjcnj.com.

B’Shalom,

Debby Kesserman                     Susan Rosenblum
