What parents say

We absolutely love our experience at Beth Shir Shalom’s Early Childhood Center. From the very beginning, we felt confident that our daughter was in wonderful hands with Teacher Myvonne, whose care and dedication truly stood out in the classroom. Beyond that, the overall standard across the ECC has been exceptional. Communication has been clear, consistent, and thoughtful, which made us feel connected and informed…

They are not nice people. The Rabbi is not nor is there , guitar player Aton. Rude and disrespectful.

Mae · 1/5 on Google · 6 months ago

Some of the greatest people in SM go to BSS. They are lively, funny, and inclusive. What could be said about that in addition is: they are truly in the spirit with the essence of Judaism. Thank you Cynthia and everyone else for the very fun trivia event, and of course your warm welcomes.

I love this place. We joined for the religious school over 20 years ago and then stayed for the warm and caring community that welcomes everyone. The young charismatic and dynamic Rabbi, who has been there for about two years now, was a great hire. We are blessed with a wonderful staff.
