We are thrilled to invite you to attend our upcoming information session about Merkaz, a community-wide Jewish-education program for teens in grades 8-12.


Our weekly program is dedicated to providing an exceptional education that blends traditional Jewish learning with modern subjects, preparing our students for success in all aspects of life.


You'll have the opportunity to learn more about our curriculum, meet our dedicated staff, and get a sense of what makes Merkaz such a unique and vibrant learning community. We'll cover everything from our commitment to meaningful and relevant Jewish education to our emphasis on community service and leadership development in a fun and low-pressure environment that prioritizes personal relationships.


Whether you're already familiar with Merkaz or just beginning to explore your options, these information sessions are the perfect way to get a closer look at what we have to offer. Don't miss out on this opportunity to see why so many families have turned to Merkaz for post-b’nai mitzvah education for more than 40 years.


RSVP to reserve your spot at our upcoming information session on Tuesday, May 9 at 7 PM on our Bridgeport Campus. We look forward to seeing you soon!
