Bat Mitzvah and Beyond

Drisha offers various programs for girls ages 11 to 13 to learn with their mothers or learning partners. Through our program options, Bat Mitzvah girls affirm their Jewish commitment and grow through the experience of learning with their family. Students may choose to study individually with a Drisha tutor on the subject of her choice or participate in a class on such topics as women in the Bible and prayer. Classes are available at Drisha or the student’s home community.

Classes
Small class size and students of diverse backgrounds are hallmarks of our classes for Bat Mitzvah girls and their mothers. Classes are given at Drisha once a semester on topics including prayer and women in the Bible. If you would like to participate in a class in your community or create one that meets your community’s interests, please contact us for more information.

Individual Study
Discover why students credit their Drisha tutors as role models who deepened their love of learning and guided their Bat Mitzvah preparations. Individual study sessions can take place in the Drisha Beit Midrash, an inspiring environment with a comprehensive library.
To begin, contact Drisha at 212.595.0307 or email inquiry@drisha.org.
To enable Drisha to continue to serve the community, participants are asked to make a minimum contribution in the range of $100 to $500, depending on the length of time that the tutor has learned with you in the Beit Midrash.
