Education

The Helen & Sam Kornblau Religious School is dedicated to educating students in the spiritual, ritual, and ethical foundations of the Jewish religion following the tenet of Conservative Judaism in a warm and caring environment.

The aim of each session is to fortify pride, knowledge, and strength of each students’ understanding of Judaism and Hebrew. Students will be encouraged and supported to expand their understanding of themselves in relation to Judaism. The students will be exposed and immersed into the Hebrew language and Judaic customs and culture through various modalities and opportunities.

Welcome to JMC, everyone!

JMC (Jewish Middle School Community) is a vibrant group where Jewish middle schoolers and their parents in Richmond can connect and build strong bonds. Our activities blend Jewish ideas with fun, creating opportunities for Jewish kids to enjoy themselves and connect with the broader Richmond community.

Feel free to ask Ira Korshin (admin) at ira.korshin@gmail.com to share this group with Jewish friends in grades 6-8 and their parents if they’re interested. Let’s talk, have fun, and connect!

We will gather 1-2 times each month, and you’re welcome to join any or all of our activities!
