MORRIS WINCHEVSKY SCHOOL

There's more than one way to be Jewish!

""While Shaina looks forward to her engaging, hands-on Sunday morning classes every week, my husband and I have come to look forward to the relaxed, welcoming atmosphere of Winchevsky events, and the opportunities to schmooze with our fellow Shule parents."
Sylvia Hunter, MWS parent

Back to Basics - ‘Digging Up’ Jewish Holidays

Learn the real story behind Jewish holidays going back 3,500 years to the ancient Canaanites and see how traditions develop over time into our own secular interpretations of the holidays. Students will learn the key symbols, vocabulary, and traditions through music, food, and art.
