Welcome to the Morris Nirenberg Religious School!

“My daughter loves attending each week to see friends and learn more about our shared heritage and beliefs. She loves the teachers and is building a strong foundation in Jewish learning that will serve her for a lifetime.” – Ethan Peck

We are a joyful, close-knit community where children build Jewish friendships, develop strong Jewish identities, and grow a deep sense of community rooted in Jewish values, traditions, culture, and learning.

During their years with us, students engage deeply with Jewish holidays, Torah, prayer, Hebrew, history, Israel, and the rich diversity of Jewish cultures and experiences. They come to experience Judaism not only as something they learn, but as something they live—a source of meaning, connection, and joy that they discover through sacred texts, story, discussion, hands-on experiences, and shared practice.

We help students grow into their Jewish selves in four interconnected ways:

Relationships & Community — how we live with one another

Character & Values — who we are striving to become

Spirituality & Sacred Awareness — how we create meaning and lift up holiness in our lives

Repairing the World & Social Action — how we can help build a more just and compassionate world

Through exploring Jewish texts and traditions, wrestling with timeless questions, learning Hebrew, celebrating holidays, and discovering Jewish histories and cultures, students develop both deep Jewish literacy and a personal, meaningful, and spiritually-rich Jewish identity.

We welcome and embrace families of all backgrounds and identities, including LGBTQ+ and interfaith families, into our warm and inclusive community.
