Progressive Hebrew Afterschool: Keshet (Sponsored)

Join our all-Hebrew, after-school program where children ages 4 and older learn about Israeli language and culture through music, games and crafts.

Keshet is a unique and innovative after-school program for children ages 4 and older, bringing Hebrew language learning together with Israeli culture. Keshet, the Hebrew word for rainbow, is also an acronym for Kehillat Safa V’ Tarbut – Community of Language and Culture. Language and culture are at the heart of the educational work of Keshet.

Keshet offers two tracks — an immersion track for Hebrew speaking children and a dual language program for non-Hebrew speaking children. Both tracks meet weekly and, in addition to Hebrew language education, explore aspects of Jewish and Israeli identity, as well as Jewish values and holidays through an Israeli prism. We aspire to develop a love of Israel’s folklore and its unique history in our students.
