Dear Families,

We just ended an incredible year at JJEP and we are already planning for the year ahead. It’s time to sign up for the 5775/2014-2015 JJEP school year!

This year we will be offering different options and opportunities for Beth Shalom and Rodef Shalom families. When you click the link to our registration form, you will see that Beth Shalom families are invited to also attend Family Hebrew on Sundays and the Hebrew program at Rodef Shalom on Wednesdays. Additionally, Rodef Shalom families are welcome to also attend the midweek program at Beth Shalom on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Family Hebrew now begins in 2nd grade, and the Mitkadem program is being offered online!!

Later this summer, the 4th through 7th graders will learn about the electives offered, and will have an opportunity to sign up for the first option.

The registration fee includes tuition, materials charge, and classroom breakfasts!

Due to the amount of special activities that we are planning for this upcoming school year, we are asking you to register as early as possible. In fact, we are offering a discount of $54 per student if you register BY JULY 1st. The discount is already included in the pricing if you click the link today. The pricing listed online will increase by $54 on July 2nd. Please note that this does not mean you necessarily pay the day you register. There are different payment options available on the page.

Register for J-JEP Religious School!

SAVE THE DATE: The first day of JJEP is September 7th with a BACK TO SCHOOL PICNIC at Rodef Shalom following the first day!

As always, please never hesitate to contact me should you have any questions.

HAVE A GREAT SUMMER!

Can’t wait to see everyone in the fall.

This past Sunday, J-JEP’s 4th Graders hosted Passover (with the help of our 7th graders)! 
Every twenty minutes, Kindergarten, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 5th grade switched to a new activity. 
The students recreated the ten plagues in the art room: 

They participated in seder plate relay races:

Made Charoset in the kitchen: 
 
Learned how to make Matzah from the Matzah Factory, 

And went on a Passover Scavenger Hunt throughout the building. It was a very exciting morning! 
Thank you to Joe and his students for putting all of this together. 

March 9
The JJEP 7th graders and our peers from other congregations took a trip to Washington D.C. to have a moving and emotional experience at the Holocaust Museum. Thank you to all of our supporters who made this trip possible!

Morah Molly wanted to share this Passover folder that includes the Kiddush and 4 questions as well as several other traditional songs. 

Thanks Morah Molly!
