Chabad of Ridgefield Hebrew School
Course Description 2026–27
Building Jewish pride, confidence and a lifelong love for Judaism through warm, joyful and meaningful learning.
A Hebrew School Children Love
Our goal is to engage each child’s sense of Jewish identity by capturing their imagination, curiosity and attention. We place great emphasis on providing substantive lessons in a warm, positive and encouraging atmosphere.
Lessons are multi-sensory, interactive and hands-on, allowing students to truly experience what they are learning. Through discussions, stories, activities and creative projects, Jewish knowledge becomes meaningful, personal and memorable.
Aleph Champ Hebrew Reading
Our Hebrew School uses the acclaimed Aleph Champ program to help students develop strong Hebrew-reading skills in a clear, motivating and confidence-building way. Students progress at their own pace and become comfortable reading from the Siddur, the Hebrew prayer book.
