- Does your daughter blossom in girl-only space?
- Does she thrive in a calm but fun environment?
- Does she cherish time with her friends?
- Are mixed-gender groups sometimes too rowdy or rambunctious for her?
- Does she prefer smaller class sizes?
If so, then this innovative program may be the right fit for her.
Girls Time meets 9 times in 9 months and replaces mixed-gender Adventure Rabbi Kids (ARK) classes. The curriculum for Girls Time is the same as that of our core Ark courses. The delivery of the curriculum is uniquely tailored for the girls.
Family Participation
Four times a year we offer All-School Programs, to which siblings, parents and even grandparents are invited. These festive celebrations help nurture the children’s understanding that as Jews, they are part of larger community. Plus, they are loads of fun!
Song-Session
Each class begins with a 15-minute song session, which parents and siblings are invited and encouraged to attend. The song sessions are shared with the entire ARK community. Song sessions are fun, build community and help develop Jewish literacy.
Group Size and Selection
Group size is purposely small to facilitate a close-knit group. Participants will be selected based on seeming ability to coalesce as a group. You may go ahead and register and your placement will be pending Elaine’s approval.
Depending on enrollment size, the Girls Time groups may be combined into one group.
