Inspiring jewish learning
Founded in 2002, DUGMAH provides families,
individuals and children with a well-rounded Jewish education.
Our hands-on approach is delivered via an individualized,
and focused, curriculum tailored to the learning style,
traditions, and religious practice of each family.
DUGMAH is best known for our unique B'nai Mitzvah
ceremonies catered to the custom needs of each family.

The keys to our program’s success are our mentors.
