Youth Groups
Youth Groups
EBJC has youth groups for students in grades 4 through 12. These groups meet each month for events and informal education centered on social action/tikun olam, Israel, Jewish holidays, or simply to socialize with other Jewish youth.
For information about any of these groups, contact Cantor Larry Branspiegel, Education and Youth Director.
Chaverim is our program for 4th and 5th graders.
Kadima focuses on 6th, 7th, and 8th graders.
USY provides activities and leadership opportunities for 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th graders.
Our college students are not forgotten! Through the College Connection, EBJC members receive packages several times a year to remind them of their home synagogue. To enroll your college-aged youth, click here.
