It’s a cliché by now: Judaism is about life-long learning! Long ago, the Reform movement recognized that there was life beyond Bar/Bat Mitzvah, and thus Confirmation was born.
Well, there’s life after Confirmation as well, believe it or not! For the past four years 11th and 12th grade students have been coming back to their Jewish home for ongoing and informal class sessions with Rabbi Franzel. Listen in on Thursday nights and you’re bound to hear lots of schmoozing, laughter, and a “whole lotta learning.” The curriculum is set by the students themselves, addressing modern-day concerns of young Jewish adults – including college choices and Jewish life on campus.
For those 11th and 12th grade students who have yet to come to a class, they’re open to anyone and everyone on a “drop in” basis: come and hang out with us, you’ll have fun and learn a little too!
Come join us this month on Thursday, October 8 & 22. For more information, contact Rabbi Franzel at efranzel@mlrt.org, 610-649-7800.

The Religious School at Main Line Reform Temple is committed to instilling a positive attitude toward being Jewish. It is the goal of our school to help children and their families:
- Appreciate the value of Jewish Education, participation in Jewish learning at home, in school, at the Temple, and in the community.
- Become familiar with the major sources of Jewish beliefs, traditions and practices and their relevancy to contemporary times.
- Have informed sense of the special relationship of God to our people as a whole, and how and why Jews individually believe in God as a sustaining force in our lives.
- Understand the role of Judaism in world history and develop pride in Jewish accomplishment in history.
- Recognize the role of Israel in the development of Judaism, and develop an emotional bond to the people and land of Israel.
- Learn skills to participate in Reform Worship service and find meaning in prayer.
- Learn the Hebrew language.
- Understand and experience fulfillment as human beings and as Jews. Make the Temple a place to feel spiritual and welcome.
