The Middle Class is Being Priced out of Judaism

  1. It doesn’t have to be so expensive. Some Jewish day schools in Montreal are not very useful for learning French, which is a priority if you’d like your kids to stay in Montreal. A lot of parents in my synagogue (even our rabbi) send their kids to public schools and enroll them in after school programs, bring them to our Family Shabbat once a month, and send them to Jewish summer camp if they can.. Which makes Synagogue membership more important, but dues can be adjusted to income.
