Madrichim or Teen Aide Program
Our Madrichim or Teen Aide Program is the largest (and we like to think the best) of its kind in the Capital District. The Hebrew "Madrichim" means guide, or is sometimes translated as model (as in role model) and our teens from 7th through 12th grade most definitely are guides and role models for our younger students. This school year, forty Madrichim provide a multitude of services throughout our school.WHERE OUR MADRICHIM WORK:
* Assistants to classroom teachers in every grade from kindergarten through 6th grade on both Wednesdays and Sundays. They are the
* Teachers in our Dance program on Sundays (under the supervision of Lily Kowalski).
* Tutors in our Reading Resource Room.
* One-on-one aides to special needs students.
* They provide support services in the office and the library.
* We even have a school photographer so that we are able to share all kinds of school events with the congregation.
New Madrichim are always welcome to work either Wednesdays, Sundays, or both days. Any student in grades 7th through 12th grade interested in joining the Madrichim program should contact Iris Falk at 432-1392 or Our school program is so much richer thanks to our Madrichim and it is impossible to imagine our program without them.
