ZARKOR UPPER SCHOOL PROGRAM FOR STUDENTS IN 8TH-12TH GRADE

YOUR SEARCH FOR JEWISH CONNECTION

ZARKOR, Hebrew for searchlight, allows our students in Eighth Grade and older to create an individualized Jewish path of learning and enrichment. This program offers a variety of leadership, learning and social opportunities. Individuals can participate in our Madrichim Teaching Assistant Program where they will assist in our classrooms and be a role model to our younger students.  Eleventh and Twelfth Grade students will have the opportunity to connect with members of the SWFS community for internships in desired fields.  All students come together once a month on a Tuesday evening to learn  together.  Electives include: Modern Hebrew, Torah study, Jewish History, Israel, Teaching Assistant training meetings, song leading and more.  In addition, students will participate in ongoing community service opportunities.  They are also welcome to get   involved in various committees and sub-committees here at SWFS. 

You choose your own way of learning; let us be your guide!
