Notes on Davening

  • We use the RCA Artscroll Ashekenazi siddur. Our baalei tefilla use either the Sephardic or Ashkenazi havarah, depending on their personal preferences.
  • Our minhagim generally follow the Luach Ezras Torah.
  • For Shabbos/Shabbat candlelighting times and exact times for mincha, please see the bulletin.
  • On days school is not in session (summer and Chol Hamoed) there may be an additional Shacharis/Shacharit Shacharit minyan at 8 am; check the announcements.
  • Legal Holidays are New Year's Day, Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and December 25th.
  • On weekdays when the Torah is read, Shacharis/Shacharit follows the Monday-Thursday schedule.
  • The actual algorithm for weekday mincha is 20 minutes before the earliest sh'kia for that week, rounded up to the next multiple of 5 minutes. The actual algorithm for mincha on erev Shabbos/Shabbat is candlelighting time, rounded down to the previous multiple of 5 minutes.
