DISABILITY INCLUSION
Opening the door to Jewish education is the core of what we do. Congregation Beth El welcomes all types of learners in our educational programs. We employ an Inclusion Specialist to work with administrators, teachers, students, and families to develop accommodations and modifications for each student as needed. We are happy to meet with parents to discuss how our program can suit your child. Please contact Rabbi Ira Rosenberg at 510-848-3988 ext. 215 if you have any questions or concerns.
