About Chabad Tri-Cities Hebrew School

Jewish Learning That Feels Warm, Joyful, and Alive

At Chabad Tri-Cities Hebrew School, every child is welcomed for who they are. We create a warm space where children can learn, ask questions, build friendships, and develop a genuine love and pride for being Jewish.

Through Hebrew language, Jewish history, holidays, traditions, creativity, and hands-on experiences, children discover that Judaism is meaningful, relevant, and part of their everyday lives.

Warm & Welcoming

Every child is valued, encouraged, and made to feel that they truly belong.

Personal Attention

We meet students at their level and help each child grow with confidence at their own pace.

Jewish Pride

Children build a joyful connection to their heritage, their community, and their Jewish identity.

Our Goal Is Simple

We want children to enjoy coming to Hebrew School and to leave each week knowing something new, feeling good about being Jewish, and excited to return. Along with Hebrew reading and Jewish knowledge, our students gain friendships, confidence, and experiences that stay with them long after the school year ends.
