Kids really like?

Allows kids to actively participate in the shaping of their own curriculum?

Allows students to be free enough to challenge and engage the teachers in a debate of equals on ancient thoughts or current issues?

That's the Lincoln Square Synagogue Feldman Hebrew School.

At our Hebrew School, Jewish tradition is never judgmental, stagnant or monolithic. Tradition is relevant and speaks in a language that its students can relate to and comprehend. Although we are housed in a Traditional Synagogue, our school is non-denominational and successfully attempts to relate to children from all backgrounds and levels of observance.

Our teachers are young, experienced and dynamic educators who are graduates of schools of advanced Jewish studies. They are profoundly committed to Jewish education and come to us with extensive experience in working with young people. Our energetic teachers are outstanding role models to their students of what young Jewish adults should be all about.

Our Hebrew School was founded in 1965 and our founding Principal, LSS's Cantor Sherwood Goffin, still inspires and leads the program. The Educational Director of our school is Mrs. Ruth Riemer, an experienced Judaic Studies Educator and former Chief School Psychologist for the Valley Stream Public School System. Our leadership's ability to relate to each student, convey enthusiasm and excitement for Judaism is real and contagious to our students.

The School meets two days a week on Monday and Wednesday afternoons, or, optionally, one day a week (Mon. or Wed.) 4:00 P.M. to 6 P.M.

Our primary class accepts children from age 5, and our classes continue through to Bar and Bat Mitzvah.

Our teacher to student ratio of 1:5 promotes individualized attention and a high-quality learning environment.

Our tuition is affordable and we will never turn away a Jewish child for financial reasons.
Synagogue membership is not required.

Bat Mitzvah and Bar Mitzvah preparation courses are a regular part of our program for those families who want it.
