About Us

We are a program for children in grades PK – 8 that meets on Sunday mornings and after school on Wednesday afternoons. We provide a nurturing environment for children to explore their Jewish heritage and identity.

We feel strongly that temple membership should not be a barrier preventing your child from getting a Jewish education. You do not need to be a member of a synagogue to send your child to the JLCMW. We have students from local synagogues as well as students who are unaffiliated. 

The JLCMW aims to offer an environment where: 

• each child feels at peace and full of joy the minute they come through our doors

• each child feels that they belong and that they have something to contribute 

• each child is encouraged to discover their true self, contemplate their personal values and are guided to develop their own world view

• each child develops their personal character, learning to rely on themselves, their judgment and their ability to make thoughtful choices and reflective decisions

• each faculty member develops a personal relationship with each student and students connect to each other in creating a strong loving community where every student feels acceptance, love and support of every adult in the school  

• every student feels they have a voice and a role in driving their Jewish learning journey
