Our Teacher Assistants’ (TA’s) work as a partner to the teacher and role model to the students in our classrooms. Ta’s are encouraged to share their skills while leading and also supporting the learning going on in the classrooms. Because these teens are helping younger students learn in a Jewish environment, we feel its important they are also are Jewish learners themselves. Teens must be enrolled in Teen Beyachad or Tuesday Night Classes in order to be a teacher Assistant. This is a year long Commitment where teens can receive either Community service hours or a stipend paid out twice a year. Participants in this program can choose to work Sundays / Tuesday afternoons or both.
