Jeschurun-School offers officially recognized Jewish Religious Education as an alternative to Ethics or other Religious Education at public schools.

Jewish students may choose Jewish Religious Education at Jeschurun as an alternative to Ethics or other Religious Education at public schools. Jeschurun offers officially recognized Jewish Religious Education according to the curriculum of the State of Hesse. Classes are held Monday through Thursday in the afternoon hours. Teaching language is German. Jeschurun is centrally located in the Frankfurt Westend. Our students benefit from the opportunity to meet other Jewish youth from various public schools.

Grades achieved at Jeschurun are recorded in the report cards of public schools. If mandatory conditions are met, students may also choose Jewish Religion as 4th or 5th exam subject in their final high school exams.

Furthermore, Jeschurun offers in cooperation with the Frankfurt Rabbinate a free Bar- and Bat-Mitzvah-Club for girls and boys in preparation for their Bat- or Bar-Mitzvah.

For members of the Frankfurt Jewish Community, Jeschurun classes are free of charge, except for extracurricular activities such as excursions or Shabbat-celebrations.

Enrollments are generally accepted via registration-form. The Jeschurun office is available during school time, Tuesday through Thursday from 01:00 p.m. to 06:00 p.m. or anytime by mail or e-mail to jeschurun@jg-ffm.de.
