Welcome to Maccabi Academy's Judaics program, directed by Moreh Sandra Hershson. As with our secular studies, Judaics is divided in an Upper School (grades 3-5) and Lower School (grades K-2).

Depending on the grade level, students spend between one and two hours each day (except Fridays) learning about their shared history, culture, and texts. Areas of regular Judaic study include:

  • Hebrew Language
  • Torah and Jewish Texts
  • Holidays and the Life Cycle
  • Shabbat
  • Prayer
  • Middot (Jewish values)
  • Israel
In addition, all students also recieve Judaic enrichment that includes arts, music, and the history of the Asheville Jewish community.

L'hitra'ot!
