Introduction to Judaism - Many of us have not been able to continue our Jewish
studies. Many of us have so many questions which are unanswered.

on a serious overview of our History and our Traditions in 20
sessions.
When: Every Monday from 8:00pm to 9.15pm

You may know that TAG is an educational and social program for
Jewish teens that promotes experiential learning and critical
thinking. Beth Tikvah, Beth Israel and Or Shalom have
joined the party, and formed a new steering committee. The

David High School.
TAG meets on Monday evenings from 6:00pm to 8:45pm.
Students take 3 elective courses and socialize in between.
Students can join the group at any time during the school year.
