Jewish Community Relations Council and PJ Library have collaborated to create a three-part series for parents of school aged children to explore a variety of issues that families may face while navigating being Jewish in Indiana schools. All three sessions will take place virtually via zoom. 

The series will conclude on Sunday, Oct. 18 with a discussion about the “December dilemma” and how to talk about Chanukah in your student’s classroom. We will explore effective ways that parents can address the presence of Christmas decorations in the classroom, or Christmas songs during school concerts. Lindsey Mintz, JCRC Executive Director, will model what a brief classroom presentation could look like as we discuss how doing so can nurture your child’s confidence and pride in their Jewish identity.

All three of the sessions take place on Sundays from 2 to 3:30 pm.
