Education
We are firm believers in lifelong learning.
We welcome all parents raising Jewish children, regardless of family background and in all expressions of human diversity. Finances should not be a barrier to Jewish education - please contact us to discuss options that respect both your family situation and our community resources.

Nashira Education Project
Nashira means "let us sing". Our mission is to help children find their own Jewish voice through exposure to the joy and richness of our texts, culture and ritual.
The Nashira Project is excited to share a new, Montessori inspired format for the 2024-25 year. In learning Torah, we will also be sharing hands-on, joyful experiences with music, Hebrew, and art. See the Nashira Page of our Website for full details.
Our program includes:
- 18-20 sessions per year starting in September or October
- Vibrant holiday celebrations with our synagogue community
- Age appropriate lessons in Torah, ethics, Jewish culture and Hebrew
- Opportunities for social action and tikkun olam
- Connection to a warm and welcoming Jewish environment
During Nashira Project sessions, students learn about Jewish life and traditions, Jewish values, and Torah. As they get older, students explore what Jewish life means to them as individuals, as part of their family, and as part of a larger Jewish community.
Member dues cover half of the expenses of children's education at Shir Tikvah.
We welcome non-member guests to register. Please note 2 years of membership is required for your child to have a Brit Mitzvah at Shir Tikvah.
Learn more about what happens in each grade level here.
