Once students complete their 6th-grade year in JEMS, they transition into

our Teen Program which offers 7th through 12th graders an opportunity to explore the social realities of this time in their lives guided by Rabbi Ron Li-Paz and Teen & Intergenerational Specialist, Jacqui Kolker.

Through interactive group games, relevant Jewish text study, critical thinking about gender norms, pop culture, and ethics, teens will be able to ask questions and feel heard in a safe environment.
