Dear Parents,
We have exciting news to share about the upcoming 2026-2027/5787 school year at the Dr. Cy Gruberg Hebrew
School. Coming This Fall! Exciting new curriculum launching at Chabad of Ulster County!
Here’s what your child will experience this year:
At the Dr. Cy Gruberg Hebrew School, we are always looking for fresh ways to engage students and make Jewish education exciting and meaningful. This year, we have worked hard to assemble a comprehensive and engaging curriculum that will motivate your child to blossom. Using educational tools, such as theater, crafts, and STEM, this experience is bound to capture the attention of each student. We encourage children to take a leadership role and contribute to the classroom setting using their unique creative abilities.
This year we will be focusing on the Bereishit-Story of my life curriculum. We are also continuing CKids Club, as a project of the Dr. Cy Gruberg Hebrew School. We welcome all friends of our Hebrew School children to join.
At Chabad Hebrew School, we’re committed to providing a warm and personal Jewish educational experience, where children learn to live the beauty and wisdom of Judaism every day, and have lots of fun along the way!
We are continuing with the Aleph Champ reading program. This innovative method draws on the martial arts motivational philosophy of color coded levels and testing. With professional and beautifully designed materials, the children work their way up the colors to be a “Black Aleph Champ!”
Hebrew School will begin this year, G‑d willing, on Tuesday, September 8th.. All Jewish children are invited. Hebrew School will be every Sunday morning from 10:00 Am - 12 Noon starting on October 4, 2026.
On May 23, 2027, We will have our 'End of the Year Ceremony.’ Please save the date! All extended families are invited to join.
At the Dr. Cy Gruberg Hebrew School of Ulster County, Jewish families of all backgrounds and affiliations are made to feel welcome. Please invite your friends to visit our Hebrew School to learn more about our unique programs and curriculum.
Thank you all for entrusting your children's Jewish education in our hands! Our goal is to instill in each child a strong positive Jewish identity. We are looking forward to an enriching and enjoyable year.
Wishing you all a happy, healthy and sweet New Year!
