CPR Course
Netivot Shalom is pleased to offer a CPR course on Sunday, May 5th from 7:00pm to 10:00pm.
This course includes adult, child, and infant CPR. If your CPR skills are rusty, this is a great opportunity to review.
The cost of the class is $50. Please register early, spots are limited. Sign up using this FORM . If you have any questions, please contact Sima Kern .
Youth Director Position
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.
