Religious School

We are proud to offer one of Vancouver's premiere Jewish education programs. The goal of our Religious School is to strengthen our children's Jewish identity and to ensure that they develop a strong, positive affiliation with Jewish culture, history and tradition. Our objective is to help our students become thinking, feeling Jews who will grow up to become active, committed and involved members of the community.

Our creative, dedicated teachers follow an innovative curriculum which is both relevant and engaging. Students study Torah, learn Hebrew, participate in Tefillah (prayer), become familiar with our traditions and ceremonies, explore Jewish history and current events, and develop life-long bonds with the State of Israel. Religious School programming, which is carefully tailored for each age group, incorporates the study of theology, the Jewish calendar and the Holocaust.

The Temple Sholom Religious School has regularly scheduled classes from 9:30am to 12:00pm on Sunday mornings for Kindergarten through Grade 7. Students in Grades 4 through 7 also attend a mid-week class. Classes for Grades 8 to 12 are held on Monday evenings as part of the Community High School Program known as TAG.
