TBS Midrasha Vision, Mission and Values
Our Vision - TBS Midrasha in partnership with our families and our community will produce students who take pride and joy in their Jewish identity and who can make Jewishly informed decisions on how they will practice Judaism in their lives.
Our Mission - TBS Midrasha dedicates itself to embracing change and creating innovative and effective methods in order to provide a quality Jewish education for all students. We strive to inform and excite our students about Judaism and Jewish life and do so in ways that will, in shared responsibility with our families, create lasting ties to the Jewish community, its faith, traditions, and ethics.
In pursuing our vision and in support of our mission, we are guided by a shared collection of Jewish values:
Jewish Ethical Values - Our interactions with each other are informed by Jewish ethical values.
Mitzvot - Our relationships with others and with G-d require sacred deeds.
Torah Study - Knowledge of the Torah, its themes, and history leads to intellectual and spiritual transformation and the practice of good deeds and Jewish-minded actions.
Hebrew - Hebrew is the language of our ancestors, the predominant language of the Jewish People, and provides a commonality to bind us together.
Jewish Worship and Prayer - Recitation of prayer is a central characteristic of Jewish worship. Our liturgy provides a framework for our public expression of spirituality.
Israel - The land of Israel is our homeland and central to Jewish history, religion, and values.
Conservative Judaism and Jewish Movements - We are affiliated with the United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism and understand its relationship to the other branches of Judaism

Sunday School
Sunday school focuses broadly on Jewish values and study, with the goal of teaching students a strong love for Judaism and a sense of pride in being Jewish. Throughout kindergarten to grade 7, students move through a variety of topics, learning about ethics and values, Jewish history, the land of Israel, and liturgy and holidays.
Hebrew School
Hebrew school is a complement to Sunday school and begins with learning the letters and words of the Hebrew language, using them as building blocks in learning to read and chant prayers. Through understanding the prayers of the siddur and their place in worship services, students become knowledgeable about and fluent in the rituals of Jewish life. Hebrew school has a structured curriculum for students in grades 2 through 7, with learning goals for each year.
A Framework of Excellence School
Temple Beth Shalom is proud to be a Framework for Excellence School, a designation awarded by the United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism. Learn about the Framework of Excellence qualifications that Temple Beth Shalom meets so that we maintain this designation.
