Life-Long Learning
Temple B'nai Or is committed to providing meaningful and enriching Jewish learning experiences for all members of our community, at every age and stage of life.
Frances and Herbert Brody Pre-School
Our preschool runs two tracks. One is a private Judaic program. The other, a non-faith based public program that we operate as a proud partner with The Morris School District. We welcome the opportunity to bring our warm, caring and exemplary education to all students within our community.
Joel and Helen Jacobs Religious School
Our goal is for your child to develop a love of being Jewish in community with other children, their teachers, and all our families. We foster acceptance and belongingness among all members of our learning community and truly delight in the joy and fun of worshiping and celebrating Jewish life together. We are committed to accommodating the individual needs of our families.
Jewish learning at our religious school begins in Pre-K and continues through ORIM as seniors in high school.
Adult Education
Throughout the year, we provide a variety of ongoing and one-off educational programs for adults. Ongoing programs include Hebrew classes for all levels of speakers with both the Director of Education and the Cantor, Bagels & Torah with the Rabbi on Saturday mornings, and an Introduction to Judaism (102) Melton Course. Our educational programs are led by clergy, members, and guest lecturers.
