Teen Learning Community (TLC)
for 8th-12th graders
|
|
We are thoughtfully working on reopening plans for TLC and Kulanu.
The Return to School TLC/Kulanu Task Force, made up of parents, teachers and medical professionals, has been discussing how we can safely gather in the fall. We are committed to helping all our Jewish teens continue to thrive at this challenging time.
We look forward to announcing our plans in the next few weeks. Regardless, TLC will gather--either in person or online--at the dates and times below.
As always, please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
