If you have a motivation for enrolling your family in Sunday School OTHER than what is listed above, please describe briefly:

TBE staff is designing an approach to Sunday School 2020-2021 that minimizes risk while maximizing connected Jewish learning!

We already know we are resilient! Now we determine what that looks like for TBE families this year!

What do you think? What does your family need?

Planning for Sunday School 20-21

As we develop our plans for Sundays in fall 2020 considering all of the unknowns associated with Covid-19 risks, we'd like to hear your thoughts and ideas! We have to consider many factors including the safety and limitations of our families and teaching team, as well as what changes will be set up for success.

Please answer the following questions with your current preferences and suggestions and we will continue to do the best we can do to meet TBE families' needs!

While answering, please keep in mind that if we were to plan in-person learning opportunities, careful preparation and practices would be implemented to maximize safety according to TBE policies and CDC recommendations.

What would your family prefer for the 2020-2021 Sunday School Year (Fall semester in particular)? Please indicate your level of agreement to the following statements:

Choose your level of agreement:
1 = Strongly Disagree
2 = Somewhat Disagree
3 = Indifferent
4 = Somewhat Agree
5 = Strongly Agree

* Our family would prefer for Sunday School to remain primarily online for fall 2020.

* Our family would prefer a hybrid program for Sunday School (mixed online, facilitated at-home, small group in-person learning opportunities, and/or family learning opportunities).

* If online learning is not ideal for your family, which type of program would your family lean towards? Returning to TBE in-person with risk mitigation according to CDC health guidelines (example: mandatory masks for children ages 5+), OR facilitated family Judaic learning adventure opportunities (example: highly planned interactive scavenger hunt around the city with all materials provided)?

* If we provided carefully planned in-person Sundays, are you willing to volunteer regularly as a parent on Sunday mornings to help implement practices such as temperature-taking at the gate and bathroom monitoring (for example)?

If you answered "Yes" to the above question, please share your full name and best contact email below as well as how you think you'd best be able to assist:

* Our family finds at-home activity suggestions and materials to be meaningful and we'd like the Sunday School Teaching Team to provide more Jewish learning activities and materials for us to implement at home.

* Our family's main concern(s) when it comes to Sunday School in the fall is/are:

Health (risk avoidance)Opportunity for safe social connection opportunitiesFear of falling behind in Hebrew/Judaic learningBalancing Sunday School with other TIME demandsMinimizing the time our family spends online and on screens

Tell us more about your main concerns (optional):

Often, in times like these is opportunity for paradigm shifts and innovative changes, and we are considering outside-the-box solutions as well. What are your creative ideas for how TBE could adapt Jewish Learning to current family needs?

Would you like to be part of designing and implementing the adaptive plan for Sunday School this year? If so, please provide the email address you'd like to be contacted at below:
