CTEENS

Dear Parents/Guardians:

      We are very excited to present the Cteen Program. This unique group offers post-Bar/Bat Mitzvah Jewish teenagers the opportunity to engage with other Jewish teens in a warm, accepting environment where they are encouraged to take leadership roles, build new friendships, explore Judaism, and develop as a young adult.  

      Under the leadership of the Cteen Director, the group will have numerous trips, social functions, educational opportunities, and community activism programs. As you can see from the attached tentative schedule of events, each month is packed with innovative and stimulating programming. We at Cteen believe that some of the most important growth in a young adult’s life occurs when s/he is with peers. To that extent, we hope that Cteen can be a positive venue for socializing, learning, and growing. Each event, from Laser Tag to Friday Night Live, will offer ample opportunities and choices so that every teen has the chance to enjoy him/herself. 

      Cteen is a large-scale operation that requires much time and effort on behalf of the Cteen staff, as well as a large financial commitment on behalf of Cteen. As such, before accepting your application and tuition, we request that you and your teen sit down for a short meeting with a member of the Cteen staff. Please call our office or send us an e-mail to arrange for a meeting. The meeting should last no more than 15 minutes. Please bring the completed Cteen application to the meeting. We wish for every Jewish teen in the area to have the opportunity to join if financial concerns are an issue, please contact the Cteen director. 

      Thank you for your interest in the Cteen group. We look forward to working with you and providing your teen with one of his/her most memorable experiences!

 Sincerely, Rabbi Mendy Gurkov
