Weekly, Home-Based Jewish Education Across the Conejo and San Fernando Valleys
JEWELS (Jewish Education: Wisdom,
Ethics, Hebrew Literacy & Service) is
an innovative Jewish education
program of Valley Outreach Synagogue
for students in kindergarten through
8th grade designed to inspire a love and
appreciation of Judaism while gradually
preparing students for their Bar/Bat
Mitzvah service.
As the only home-based
program of its kind, each JEM
(Jewish Education Module) is
comprised of students grouped
according to both ability and grade.
During half of each weekly two hour
session, students connect with their
Jewish heritage through games,
stimulating discussion, song, dramatic
role play, guest speakers and specialist
instructors. During the year there are
many community events, field trips
and other experiential activities.
Additionally, students learn how to
read, write and speak Hebrew at their
level, eventually mastering the prayers
that they will deliver during their
Bar/Bat Mitzvah service.
