Learning and education at the Temple is the key to living a full and meaningful Jewish life.  Temple Shalom regards education as a life-long commitment, we therefore offer education at all stages of life.  The goals of our Educational Program embrace experiences and learning activities which encourage children, youth and adults to become:

• Jews who affirm their Jewish identity and bind themselves inseparably to their people by word and deed.
• Jews who bear witness to the brit (covenant between God and the Jewish people) by embracing Torah through the study and observance of mitzvot (commandments) as interpreted in the light of historic development and contemporary thought.
• Jews who affirm their historical bonds to Eretz Yisrael, the State of Israel.
• Jews who value the practice of t'fillah (prayer).
• Jews who further the causes of justice, freedom and peace by pursuing righteousness, justice, and acts of loving kindness.
• Jews who celebrate Shabbat and the festivals and observe the Jewish ceremonies marking the significant occasions in their lives.
• Jews who esteem themselves and others; their own family and the families of others; their own community and the communities of others.
• Jews who express their kinship with K'lal Yisrael by actively seeking the welfare of Jews throughout the world.
• Jews who support and participate in synagogue life. Such Jews will strengthen the fabric of Jewish life and ensure the future quality of Judaism and the Jewish people.
