Learn
“Great is Torah study, for it leads to righteous action.”
–Babylonian Talmud, Tractate Kiddushin 40b
Jewish study is a lifelong pursuit. At Congregation Beth El, we encourage adult learning and discussion. Our Rabbi offers regular learning opportunities throughout the year, both during the week and during Shabbat. In addition to these regular learning opportunities, we strive to offer speakers and programming that stimulate our intellectual curiosity.
Monthly Torah Study: during Shabbat morning services, followed by Kiddush lunch. See the CBE calendar for specific dates. All are welcome to come and participate!
Cafe CBE: This is Rabbi Paskind’s new class. It meets on Tuesdays at 11am, in person only, starting on Oct 10, 2023. Adult learners of all backgrounds are invited to grab some coffee and explore traditional and modern Jewish texts (in English). New learners are welcome anytime!

A yearly opportunity to deepen our Jewish learning, in memory of long-time congregant and morning minyan leader Bill Grossman.
Nitzan Nursery School is a state-licensed nursery school.
In Hebrew, Nitzan means “blossom.” We are dedicated to having each student blossom, grow and learn at their own pace and in their own way. Nitzan’s warm and nurturing environment encourages curiosity and safely allows your child to explore his or her surroundings. Our goal is the individual growth and development of the whole child — creatively, socially, emotionally, physically and intellectually. By providing a variety of developmentally appropriate experiences and material, Nitzan creates an atmosphere that encourages every child to develop a love of learning and a positive self-image. Children of all faiths are welcome to attend.
Nitzan Nursery School provides:
- Individualized attention and instruction for every student
- Flexible scheduling and extended day programs
- A professional, dedicated, caring staff
- A family-like environment, where parents and other relatives are encouraged to be active partners in the children’s education
