Today, our Brookhaven Afternoon Community students wrapped up their final day together. What a year it has been! Full of Jewish learning, laughter, friendship, and so much simcha (joy).

To our JKG families: thank you for being part of our kehillah (community). We are so proud of everything your child learned and experienced this year. See you in the fall!

Did you know? May is Jewish American Heritage Month! 💙

At JKG, we celebrate Jewish learning, community, and tradition every day. This month presents a special opportunity to honor the history, culture, and contributions of Jewish Americans.

How is your family celebrating Jewish American Heritage Month?

Bittersweet doesn't even begin to cover it 💚

Yesterday, our Morningside and Decatur Afternoon Community students wrapped up an incredible year. From celebrating Jewish holidays to building new friendships and learning Hebrew words, this kehillah (community) showed up for one another every single day.

To our Afternoon Community families: Thank you! We are already counting down to the new school year!

Pop quiz: WHY do we eat dairy on Shavuot? 🧀🍦🥞

Shavuot is one of those holidays that's genuinely fun to teach. When the Jewish people received the Torah at Mount Sinai, they suddenly had a whole new set of rules, including the laws of keeping kosher.

But their pots and pans weren’t kosher yet. So what did they eat? Dairy! Simple, delicious, no-prep-needed dairy.

There are other reasons, too: the Torah is compared to milk and honey, nourishing and sweet. The gematria of the word "chalav" (milk) adds up to 40, the same number of days Moses spent on Mount Sinai. Jewish tradition loves a good layered answer, and Shavuot delivers.

Chag Sameach from our JKG family to yours! May your Shavuot be sweet, cheesy, and full of meaning. 💛

Yesterday, our B Mitzvah and Teen Leadership Academy students closed out an incredible year together. 💙💚💜

From exploring Jewish texts and values, stepping up as mentors, and standing before their community at the B Mitzvah ceremony, these two student groups showed up all year with curiosity, compassion, and heart!

To our B Mitzvah and Teen Leadership Academy families: thank you for trusting JKG with your children's Jewish journeys. We are so proud of everything they've accomplished ✨

Thanks to a JLearn BOOST Grant from Jewish Federation of Greater Atlanta and a growing partnership with Adamah ATL, Jewish Kids Groups is expanding nature-based Jewish education — helping educators integrate “nature as Torah” into everyday learning.

Israeli salad, burekas, limonana, and a whole lot of simcha! 🇮🇱💙

Afternoon Community students are diving into Israeli culture through food, history, and creativity. Taking inspiration from Prime Minister Golda Meir's legendary "Kitchen Cabinet," students gathered at their own mock mitbach (kitchen) to share food, explore Israeli traditions, and discuss the values that matter most to them.

Along the way, they played Israeli Guess Who, learned about famous Israelis, and created their own Hanoch Piven-inspired self-portraits. This is Jewish learning at its most delicious. 💜

Mazel tov to the JKG B Mitzvah class of 2026! 🎉💜

On April 19, our students entered the kehillah of Jewish adults in two joyful ceremonies full of meaning, music, and celebration. From blessings and Havdalah to heartfelt speeches and dancing the hora, it was a day our community will carry with them always.

Your child can be part of this meaningful journey next year! The JKG B Mitzvah program is where students learn, grow, practice tikkun olam, and celebrate together. Enroll before June 1 when the registration fee increases: https://www.jewishkidsgroups.com/enroll
