This Week @ Netivot

Have a child, sibling, parent or grandparent who is graduating this year? Whether from Pre-K, Kindergarten, Middle School, High School, College, or Graduate School, co-sponsoring our annual kiddush is a great way to celebrate their achievement! Sign up to sponsor the kiddush HERE . 

Email us a baby picture of the graduate for the photo board to  administrator@netivotshalomnj.org  by Friday, May 24th.

As we transition from Pesah and engage in the Omer count to the summit of Har Sinai, please join us in participating in our annual communal learning. Please sign up for a section of Tanakh and Mishnah that we hope to complete by the second day of Shavuot. Here again is the LINK to sign up.

Netivot Shalom is looking for a dynamic part-time Youth Director to expand, enrich, and coordinate Shabbat, holiday and special programming. The Youth Director works with the Youth Committee to organize special activities and innovative programs for youth from nursery through high school. The Director coordinates and oversees youth groups on Shabbat and holidays, trains group leaders to effectively implement programming in groups, and supervises group leaders.

Ideal candidate would have some experience developing programs for kids and teens. Teaching experience is a plus, but not a must. Must have an abundance of creative ideas and excellent follow-through. We are looking to hire someone to begin Fall 2019. This could be a long term opportunity for the right candidate. 
Interested candidates should send a resume and cover letter to Pam Scheininger.
