Nitzanim is the Hebrew word for “flower buds.” Our Nitzanim Program is designed to encourage our youngest students to explore Judaism in an environment of discovery that will allow them to blossom and grow as Jewish learners. Inspired by the educational philosophy of Maria Montessori, our Nitzanim classroom is divided into five discovery centers. Each discovery center is devoted to a different subject or skill area in Jewish life.

Nitzanim classes meet once a week, and you may choose from either of two sections:
- Sunday (10am-1pm)
- Tuesday (4:15-6:15pm)
