Mishpachot Leadership Program
Eighth grade students take on a special leadership role through Mishpachot (family). Once a month they lead small, mixed-age groups of students from 3K-seventh grade in meaningful, Jewish experiences.
Each gathering includes Kabbalat Shabbat, as well as a Jewish-themed activity that the eighth grade students thoughtfully research, plan and facilitate. This program is a cherished tradition that strengthens our school community, fosters cross-grade relationships and gives our oldest students a chance to develop leadership skills while deepening their connection to Judaism.
