Masa B'Yachad Religious School

"JOURNEY TOGETHER"

In August 2019, Federation coordinated the formation of a combined religious school for grades Pre-K through 10, meeting in Munster.

​While Masa B'Yachad is designed to serve students from Congregation Beth Israel and Temple Beth-El, any family who is a member of a congregation in Lake or Porter County may choose to attend. 

Classes met at Temple Beth-El (10001 Columbia Ave., Munster) August through December 2019; at Congregation Beth Israel (535 Progress Ave., Munster) January through March 2020; and online via Zoom from March to May 2020.

Meet Our Principal: Mindy Miller

My name is Mindy Miller and I am so excited to be the principal of the new community school, Masa B’ Yachad, which literally means journey together. I am honored to be a part of this journey as both Congregation Beth Israel and Temple Beth-El schools become one. 

For the last twenty-one years I have worked for Temple Anshe Sholom in Olympia Fields. In 2005 I became their religious school principal, and in 2014 Temple Anshe Sholom’s religious school joined with another Reform and Conservative school to form Beit AmiChai School of Jewish Education. I am sure that the experience I gained from that transition will serve me well and help me guide CBI and TBE on their transition to Masa B’ Yachad.
