SUMMARY:BE NOAR
DESCRIPTION:Not enrolled but interested in joining? Contact Marci Dickman \n  \nAfter a year of research and planning\, we are excited to launch a new program for students in grades 8-11. This program\, which we are calling BE NOAR (Beth Emet Youth)\, responds to the needs and desires of our community and reflects what we have learned to be best current practices in education for teens. Our program is learner-centered\, relevant to teens and designed to spark curiosity\, content-rich\, and inclusive of students with diverse backgrounds and learning styles. We are enthusiastic about this program and are excited for teens in grades 8-11 to participate. Key features of BE NOAR: 1. Courses will be organized into modules or Core Sessions of six sessions in length. Sample module topics are listed at the end of this handbook. Some students may want to commit to only one season of modules due to other activities and commitments. The program will meet on Sunday afternoon\, twice per month\, from 12:00 noon to 2:00 pm\, beginning with lunch. 2. Students will have a part in developing the list of Core Sessions from which they may choose. 3. In addition to the modules\, students will be able to pick an elective that will meet two or three times on a weekday evening. Again\, a sample list will be found at the end of this handbook. See the list of classes below that will meet in September and October. 4. We will consolidate grade levels for some of the Core Sessions and electives\, while preserving separate grade levels for others. 5. For this transition year\, the registration and fees remain by grade level in our registration system. As with all Beth Emet programs\, no one will be excluded from BE NOAR because of inability to pay.
