KIDdish: An Introduction to Religious School for Ages 2-5
If we haven’t had the opportunity to meet, my name is Brandon Binder and I am the Interim STaRS Director for the 2021-2022 school year. Prior to accepting this position, I’ve taught the KIDdish class for the past four years. Before that, I was Youth Director and URJ Service Corps Fellow. I absolutely love the community at CST and look forward to working with you in this new capacity.
Outside of CST, I’ve taught elementary school and middle school music for the past six years. I earned my bachelor’s degree and teaching credential from Sonoma State University and I recently earned my master’s degree from the University of Colorado, Boulder. I’ve spent many summers at Camp Newman on the senior staff team and worked at other synagogues throughout California.
I am so excited to announce that we anticipate KIDdish will take place in-person this fall! We are committed to creating a safe experience for our students. We are so excited to bring back our KIDdish program in-person so we can create art together, sing fun songs, and learn about Judaism. You won’t want to miss out on the fun year we have planned for our KIDdish participants.
Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions about our KIDdish program. I look forward to seeing you (in-person) this fall!
Sincerely,
Brandon Binder, Interim STaRS Director
