Welcome to CCM's 2022-23/5783 teen enrollment page!

Below you will find the information you need to sign up your teen to join us on Wednesday nights (in person!) and retreats from September 2022 - May 2023.

WINTER Registration NOW Open!

Teens are welcome to join through-out our year. We are now announcing a mid-year registration option for teens joining us for our Winter/Spring 2023 semester, starting on Wednesday January 11th. The full cost to attend CCM program for the Winter/Spring 2023 semester is $860.00. This includes weekly Midrasha programming every Wednesday night starting January 11, 2023 ($485), two tickets to our February 25, 2023 Annual Gala event ($150), and a retreat deposit fee ($225), which totals $860.

How to register:

1 - Pick the "Winter Registration" option listed below.

2 - If applicable, use a coupon code at checkout. (Coupon codes listed in the next paragraph.)

3 - Complete teen registration information, make *payment and you are done!

*Need scholarship, financial aid or a payment plan? Then use the "tuition assistance" registration option instead. You will be asked to pay a $25 fee and CCM's Executive Director will follow up with you to make arrangements.

WINTER Registration Coupon Codes:

Are you a member of one of our partner synagogues (Beth Chaim, B'nai Tikvah or B'nai Shalom)? Use code, WINT2, this makes the total $732 for the Winter semester.
Has the teen you are registering already registered or attended one of our retreats? If so, you don't need to pay the retreat deposit fee of $225. Therefore, use coupon code WINT3 if you ARE a member of one of our to make the total $507. Use coupon code WINT4 if you are NOT a member of one of our three partner synagogues for a total of $635.

Registering more than one teen for Midrasha? We only ask you to pay the Gala fee once per family. The coupon code "2ndsignup" will enable you to take the $150 Gala fee off your cost for the second (or third) teen/s your are enrolling. If you are a synagogue member and registering a second or third teen, use the code "2ndSYN" to get your synagogue discount along with removing the Gala fee. (Please note: Our registration system only allows one coupon code per order. So to get both the $150 and $190 amount off your second teen's registration, use the "2ndSYN" code.)

Midrasha Retreats/Shabbatonim

Midrasha retreats are a vital part of the Midrasha experience. Our teens gather for a whole weekend (this year at Camp Loma Mar and Redwood Glen) to celebrate Shabbat, share meals, bond with teens from all over the Bay Area and connect to the quiet and calm of nature. As of May 2022, CCM is planning three full residential retreat weekends for the 2022-23 year. CCM teens will be joined on retreats by teens from Berkeley-Oakland Midrasha, Sherith Israel in SF and Peninsula Temple Beth El in San Mateo. By partnering all over the Bay Area, teens get a chance to experience a weekend-long retreat/Shabbaton with a larger community of Jewish teens. As part of registration, each teen pays a retreat fee of $225, which can be applied to the cost of the first retreat your teen attends. Each retreat will be $350. If you sign up for all three retreats with your teen's registration today, the full cost will only be $925, or $308 per retreat. This is a savings of $125! This pricing is only available until June 30th. The current schedule is:

November 11 - 13, 2022 - a weekend-long retreat to happen at Redwood Glen camp in Pescadero
January 27 - 29, 2023 - a weekend-long retreat at Redwood Glen camp in Pescadero
March 24 - 26, 2023 - a weekend-long retreat at Redwood Glen camp in Pescadero with teens from all over the Bay Area.

CCM Weekly Snack Donation

We ask each family to help once with our weekly (traditional) Midrasha snack of donuts and cuties. In this year's enrollment, you can pre-pay for this and we will take care of the ordering, or sign up for weekly snacks via SignUpGenius.com once the form is live for the new year.

Donation

As part of your annual registration, consider making a fully tax-deductible donation to Contra Costa Midrasha. Your support helps us provide scholarships to teens who might need it! Use the "donation" button at the bottom or in the registration to make donations in multiples of $18.

Tuition Assistance - Payment Plans or Scholarships: No one is turned away from CCM due to lack of funds. Our scholarship grant from the Brenden Mann Foundation aims to assist those in need. To request tuition assistance, register using the "Tuition Assistance or Payment Plan: Application Fee" box below. The $25 fee will be applied to any balance due. Our Director, Devra Aarons, will get right back to you! E-mail Devra at [email protected] to make arrangements for 2022-23.

NOTES:

You will need to sign up for multiple teens separately.
12th-grade students are asked to pay an additional $100 fee for field trips and graduation costs

Midrasha BASE Tuition Costs for 2022-23/5783

The full cost to attend the Contra Costa Midrasha program for ALL of 2022-2023 is $1100.00. This includes weekly Midrasha programming every Wednesday night starting September 2022 ($725), two tickets to our February 25, 2023 Annual Gala event ($150), and a retreat fee ($225), which totals $1100. Sign up by June 30th (use the "Early Bird" option below) and you automatically get a $36 discount per teen!

Synagogue Member? If you are members of a CCM partner synagogue, Beth Chaim, B'nai Shalom, or B'nai Tikvah, your synagogue has agreed to cover $190 of the tuition, reducing your full cost to $910. Upon checkout, use the coupon code "SYN" to get this discount.

Why are costs different this year? The true cost of offering our CCM Wednesday night program is $1135 per student. CCM works hard to keep that cost low - only $725 per teen for Wednesday nights - through grants and other fundraising methods. CCM hasn't raised costs to families in five years. Due to inflation, CCM made the choice to increase costs. Please know that we are not changing retreat fees. Also, CCM is grateful for a scholarship fund from the Rothenberg Family. We aim to enable all teens to participate, regardless of their ability to pay. To make any kind of financial plan or scholarship request, please reach out to CCM's Executive Director, Devra Aarons at [email protected].
