Our Early Childhood Center
This year we have two classes meeting three days a week. Our new 4 year-old class meets in our recently furnished, beautiful classroom. The 3 year-old class began its second year and we welcomed a new group of first time preschoolers! We have "I've Got Rhythm" with Susan Sacks for little ones aged 6 to 14 months and an adult. "Toddler Time Together", for children ages 15 to 24 months, is also taught by Susan Sacks.
Our school is growing and thriving and we are very excited to begin this school year with our highly experienced staff and many great programs! Please call Magda Reyes at the Temple for more information and,as always,spread the word that Har Sinai has a terrific Early Childhood Center!

Invites you to our
1st Day Rosh Hashanah Young Children's Family Service and Community Tashlich Service
What is Tashlich? Tashlich means “you shall throw off cast off.” For many generations, Jews have gathered on the 1st Day of Rosh Hashanah to cast bread, stones, or whatever our pockets hold into a flowing body of water as a symbolic way of casting off our sins, burdens, and fears of the past year and seeking God’s compassion as we enter the year ahead. If you have never participated before, begin a new tradition!
Thursday, September 9th 2:00 pm: Young Children’s Family Service 2:30 pm: Tashlich All ages are welcome
