Adult Learning for the Wondering Jew
NYC's Central Synagogue Launches Mini-SchoolWelcome to the newest member of the Florence Melton Adult Mini-School family! Central Synagogue in NYC was launched in mid-March. Central Synagogue clergy and educators as well as other specially trained, New York-based teachers, will make up the faculty. Classes are open to synagoue and non-synagogue members. But, for members of Central Synagogue, the classes may also be applied toward becoming an adult Bar or Bat Mitzvah.

This award recognizes Frieda’s impressive background, accomplishments, and leadership over several decades as a Jewish educator. Frieda currently serves as the Director of Jewish Educational School Services and the Florence Melton Adult Mini-School for the Jewish Federation of Northern New Jersey. She also oversees JFNNJ’s partnership with the Foundation for Jewish Camp’s One Happy Camper initiative. We are proud to claim Frieda as one of our own, and to add our enthusiastic MAZAL TOV on this wonderful occasion! On May 23rd, “A Tribute to Amy Karp” will be held in Pittsburgh to honor Amy “for her years of dedicated service to our community, the AJL, and the Melton Adult Mini-School.” We join the community in honoring Amy for her accomplishments, and with 1,100 graduates of Melton in Pittsburgh, there are many who join our chorus of praise. Contributions in Amy’s honor can be made to “The Amy Karp Scholarship for Adult Jewish Learning” at the Agency for Jewish Learning, 2740 Beachwood Boulevard, Pittsburgh, PA, 15217. |
