The next meeting will be held on Monday July 11; 7pm -8:30pm; at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of DeKalb, 158 North 4th Street, DeKalb, IL. Interested parties should contact Dave Becker at dpbecker@comcast.net or 815-761-0433.

The FVJSchool is set to open for its second school year this fall and we have redesigned the classes to make them even more engaging and exciting for kids and more convenient for parents!!!

Starting in September, the school will continue to meet on Sundays twice most months, but all ages will meet at the same time, from 9:30-11:30 am.  This year all ages will attend for the two full hours, but the content area will change and each student will have multiple teachers to keep things interesting!  For complete details, please see this website under “FVJSchool” on the far right, or click on the link after this web page article.  We will have ‘core classes’ but then will also integrate enrichment classes of Prayers & Music, and Arts & Crafts for all students and a 20-minute weekly introduction of Hebrew for the older students.

If you have any questions, please email Mim Evans at evansml8@yahoo.com or Tammie Weinberger at tammiew@fvjn.org.

Tuition for the first child is $200 and tuition for each additional child is $170.  For registration forms and more information, please click here.

We hope to see you all in the fall!
