• Inspiring Judaica curriculum– We strive to give our students a strong basis in Jewish literacy (holidays, traditions, Hebrew language & stories), Jewish ritual practices, a personal understanding of God, the Jewish soul, and Jewish ethics.
• Our Staff–Community Shul of Montecito and Santa Barbara provides a deeply meaningful program supported by individualized meetings with Rabbi Arthur and weekly tutorial support by our Hebrew speaking religious school staff.
• Individualized B’nai Mitzvah Experience– The individualized B’nai Mitzvah program begins when the student becomes part of the program and is provided individualized Hebrew education based on one’s ability. This unique focus on individual needs continues throughout the entire program.
