BE A PART OF OUR BCRC NEIGHBORHOOD-
TEACH HERE!
Sababa means cool.
At Beth Chaim, we actually “do” cool - we teach/discuss taboo subjects out in the world that directly impact our Jewish values. Especially with our teens. Banned books are in direct opposition to our collective Jewish values worldview.
We bring those kinds of topics into the light and discuss them with our students/families. By doing this, we push back to create the kind of world that we want to live in.
Kind, empathetic, thoughtful, proud, and cool.
What Makes Sababa School at Beth Chaim Different?
