Dear Hebrew School Parents,
Thank you personally for entrusting us with the education of your wonderful children this past year. Our exceptional team of teachers' enthusiasm and progress in their Judaic knowledge and Hebrew language skills, guided by your unwavering support and active involvement, are a testament to your steadfast support and active participation. We are truly grateful for our warm and welcoming community, which makes our school unique.
The first day of Hebrew School will be Sunday, August 17. I am excited to announce that we will have five Judaics classes by grade this year. Pre-kindergarten and kindergarten will remain Sunday-only classes, while first grade will become a Sunday and Wednesday class. Additionally, we have slightly adjusted our schedule to eliminate those on the 15-minute drop-offs and pickups.
Class Schedule
NEW! Please note the 2025-2026 class schedule:
Pre-K - Kindergarten | Sunday mornings (only) 9:00 am - 12:30 pm
1st - 7th grades | Wednesday afternoons 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm & Sunday mornings 9:00 am - 12:30 pm
2025-26 Tuition and Fees
We have modestly increased Hebrew School tuition and fees for the upcoming year. We understand the importance of providing quality education at an affordable cost and are committed to maintaining this balance.
I encourage you to register early this year. This will allow us to order the appropriate number of books and supplies for each classroom and plan our classes. Early Bird Registration pricing is available until June 15.
First-year tuition for Beth El members is free.

If you need a scholarship due to financial hardship, please request a scholarship form and return it to the office. If you have any questions, please e-mail me at sfinks@bethelphoenix.com.
