Jewish Learning

The Nathaniel H. and Fanny Stricks Jackson Religious School offers a warm and enthusiastic environment committed to building your children’s sense of Jewish integrity and self-esteem. Our goal is for all students graduating from the Jackson Religious School to feel prepared to lead Jewish lives—through their knowledge base, experience, understanding, and practical skills. We use the lenses of Torah, holidays, Israel, and Hebrew/Tefillah (prayer) to explore our Judaism.

We prioritize meaningful, interactive learning that allows our students to personally connect to their Judaism. Our teachers build deep relationships with our students, and our small class sizes allow for individualized attention and learning.

As a bridge to the Jackson Religious School, we also offer Gan Katan.
