Religious School Dates and Activities
Religious School takes place each Sunday during the school year, outside of holidays. This year, our first Sunday of Religious School is Sept. 13, 2020, and the last day with an at-home Teacher Appreciation Brunch in May 16, 2021.
Please contact the office at office@bcrcva.org for a calendar for your student's class.
Class Service Schedule
Each of our grades is given the opportunity once per year to lead a Shabbat service. This may include leading the congregation in song and/or reading certain prayers. The class often will organize a special Oneg Shabbat or dinner for the families of the students.
Rehearsals for the service typically are held the Sunday before the service during Religious School, and also during the hour before the service starts - please check with Rabbi Amy Sapowith for your grade's rehearsal schedule.

Friends of Israeli Defense Force Needs your help
As the ceasefire takes hold, hundreds of thousands of IDF soldiers and reservists continue to have critical needs. Friends of the Israeli Defense Force (FIDF) is the sole official organization authorized to collect charitable donations on behalf of the Israel Defense Forces across the United States, and the FIDF is raising emergency funds to provide the enormous humanitarian and welfare needs that the military bases cannot provide. Please consider giving to FIDF at FIDF.org.
The Jewish Federation has also created the Israel Emergency Fund. Please consider donating today.
