EZRA
Program for Special Needs Students
As part of the HaMercaz Religious School inclusion Pilot program, The
Jewish Federation has awarded Temple Menorah a $5,500 grant for their
EZRA program, which provides assistance and support to students with
special needs to ensure that they are successful in becoming involved
in the Jewish community and developing strong positive Jewish identity.
The program, available to Temple Menorah families at no additional cost,
includes: personalized learning plans, small group learning, one-to-one
attention, in-class assistance and complete confidentiality.
Children with an IEP or 504 plan in school,
or with learning problems that have not been assessed,
are eligible for EZRA. Temple Menorah is ready and waiting
to ensure that each student reaches their full potential
from Bar/Bat Mitzvah to Confirmation and beyond.

Menorah Religious School at (310) 316-8444, or e-mail Director
of Education Randi Sher, at randi@templemenorah.org.
Rosenberg Senior Center
Temple Menorah’s Rosenberg Senior Center is dedicated to continuous
intellectual, spiritual and physical well-being through one’s adult
life. The Center strives to facilitate this process through cognitive
and spiritual stimulation, physical activity and multi-generational interactions
with the Temple Menorah community and the larger Jewish community. Stressing
opportunities for social interaction, relevant speakers of Jewish interest
and classes that both challenge and entertain, the Center provides seniors
with a conduit to continued self discovery.
The Center operates from 11:00am to 3:00pm
on Mondays and Wednesdays. A daily charge of $10 for
Temple Menorah members or $12 for non-members covers all
the activities including kosher lunch, speakers and enrichment
programs. For seniors unable to drive, transportation can
be provided for a nominal charge.
Monthly registration forms are in the
Temple office, at each program event and online.
For more information, contact the Rosenberg Senior Center at (310) 316-8444
ext. 125, or e-mail Director Morgan Land at mland@templemenorah.org.
