For Children, Adults, and Families Special Needs

Efshar circle

All Ages

Efshar Circle provides a Hebrew and Judaic education for children with special needs.

Teachers focus on engaging the child’s sense of Jewish identity through exciting, hands-on learning. Each student is paired one-on-one with a volunteer which enables students to learn at their own pace with individualized curriculums. No previous Judaic instruction is necessary. Teachers design curricula to meet each student’s current level and learning style.
