FAQ about Kulanu: Jewish Learning Adventure

---

A new Hebrew School was created to include students from both Beth El of Fairfield and B’nai Torah of Trumbull students. The Education Board has been working diligently to ensure a strong Jewish education for your children in the fall. We are guided by our vision statement that we hope you will find inspirational: “To establish a sacred, inclusive environment that inspires learners to joyfully experience the richness of our Jewish heritage.”

Kulanu (כולנו) translates to “all of us” in English which is quite appropriate for our newly created school.

The Board of Education is proud to introduce Jodi Harris as the director of Jewish Learning at Kulanu. Jodi Harris will bring a wealth of religious school experience, spirit, and modern techniques to support the creation of Kulanu. Please stay tuned for future opportunities to meet Jodi in August.

Family involvement is a large part of what will make our religious school work. Volunteering allows us to show our children how much we value Jewish education, builds our Jewish community, and allows parents to learn alongside our students.  Please look for future opportunities for family engagement and volunteer opportunities for the school year.  You may also reach out to us at info@ourfutureshul.org.
