10th Grade & Confirmation

---

10th grade and Confirmation fall under the umbrella of the YAD Experience, our 7th–12th grade learning program at Temple Beth Am. 

Confirmation is a life cycle service developed by leaders of the Reform movement about 100 years ago to honor teenagers who have decided to continue their Jewish education into adulthood.  Teens gather to meet, learn, struggle and engage with our clergy, staff, each other, and confirm their Jewish identity, commitment to Jewish learning, and the Jewish people. 

---

To prepare for this milestone, teens experience:

• classroom-based and informal learning with staff and clergy at Teen Tuesday.
• a day-long retreat with informal programming and camp-style fun with staff and clergy.
• a Social Justice Seminar in Washington D.C. with the Religious Action Center.
• a mitzvah project to be decided by the Confirmation class.
