What Parents Are Saying

Testimonials

"

Confucius once said, “Wheresoever you go, go with all your heart.” And this exemplifies the attitude of the teachers at PBS Hebrew School. The warmth, generosity, and attentiveness shown by all the teachers explains why my children race to go Hebrew school. The school intertwines playful activities with serious learning about Jewish faith, traditions, and holidays. While our children play games, read stories, and create art, they are gaining so much more than meets the eye- a foundation in Judaism and long-lasting friendships. We could not be more grateful and look forward to many more years at PBS Hebrew School.

We are truly grateful to PBS Hebrew School for providing our son Jack with such a wonderful Jewish experience. From feeding his young, inquiring mind on questions regarding his religion and Jewish identity, to an opportunity to socialize with so many other like, minded children; the Hebrew School has been nothing but a richly, successful journey. Never once did we hear complaints about having to get up on a Sunday to go to Hebrew School! Many thanks to Morahs Dinie, Sarah and all the other wonderful people who work so hard to provide our children with memories we are sure will remain with them a lifetime.'

Both of my children went to PBS HS from early on until graduation. And they will both be choosing to attend attend Maimonides for many years to come. As a single mother I so appreciate the value system that is taught as well as modeled to my children through the school. I cannot be any more grateful that my children are a part of consistent, integrative, blessed and enjoyable set of extraordinarily high values that were both taught verbally and by example to my children through Morah Dinie's programming, teacher choices and love. What an invaluable experience and how lucky we all are!

There are many turning points in life. Finding PBS as our children's new Hebrew school home and family is definitely one of them. One that, through every holiday and school day, empowers the kids to be exactly who they are. They are lifted in love with their heritage and Jewish roots. The teachers produce an environment that WOWs and is the best example to them of their own potential!

The kids program is unparalleled…in just one day a week they have managed to teach them how to read Hebrew, understand and appreciate our traditions and holidays, and instill a love and commitment to Israel and their Jewish identity. Their unique, innovative approach makes learning FUN!! My kids love it!

Our Curriculum

The Palm Beach Synagogue Hebrew School is dedicated to providing a comprehensive Jewish education enabling our students to secure a deep understanding of our rich Jewish heritage, fluency in Hebrew reading, prayers and basic language skills. We strive to provide our students with a broad knowledge and understanding of Judaism which will empower them to be educated Jews who are proud of their Jewish identity and connect with G-d, His Torah and His people.

Judaic

Through comprehensive Torah learning, holiday celebrations our students gain pride in the richness of their Jewish heritage, culture and history.

Keeping to our goals to illustrate Jewish life to the fullest – throughout the year we launch educational projects, initiatives and competitions – encouraging students to express their talents and creativity within a Jewish framework, while broadening our school horizons beyond the classroom.

Hebrew

Hebrew, particularly Hebrew reading, is the key to full and meaningful engagement in traditional Jewish experiences. Friday night Kiddush, Passover Seder and the High Holy Days all come alive at PBS Hebrew School. Through Hebrew, we not only give our students the skills and knowledge they need to be prepared for their B’nei Mitzvahs, but we lay the foundation for their ongoing involvement in Jewish life and community. Our goal is to provide new and exciting ways for our students to learn to read Hebrew.

Aleph through Taf ( Grades Gan - K )

Children learn the names and sounds of the 22 letters of the Aleph Bet in an entertaining and exciting way. As they learn the letters, students develop a basic Jewish vocabulary.

Aleph Champ Reading Program ( Grades 1 - 7 )

Our Hebrew reading program is a highly motivating and inspirational way of encouraging the students to progress rapidly through the different levels of reading Hebrew.
