CCM Registration 2020-21 (5781)

Welcome to CCM's 2020-21/5781 teen enrollment page!

Below you will find the information you need to sign up your teen to join us on Wednesday nights and retreats from Sept. 2, 2020 - May 19, 2021, as well as our virtual (and interactive) summer session scheduled June 24 - August 5, 2020.

Midrasha Tuition Costs for 2020-21/5781

The full cost to attend the Contra Costa Midrasha program for 2020-2021 is $1015.00. This includes weekly Midrasha programming every Wednesday night starting September 2, 2020 ($685), two tickets to our February 20, 2021 Annual Gala event ($130), and a retreat fee ($200), which totals $1015.

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.

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 $175 of the tuition, reducing your full cost to $840. Upon checkout, use the coupon code for synagogue membership found in CCM's weekly e-newsletter or by contacting Director, Devra Aarons at devra.aarons@ccmidrasha.com.

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 $130 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.

Midrasha Retreats/Shabbatonim

Midrasha retreats are a vital part of the Midrasha experience. It is our sincere hope that retreats will happen during the 2020-21 school year. By partnering with the Berkeley/Oakland Midrasha, 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 $200, which can be applied to the cost of the first retreat your teen attends. These three weekends (Oct. 23-25, 2020, Jan. 29 - 31, 2021 & April 23 - 25, 2021) create strong bonds, enable deeper learning and Jewish experiences, and give a much-needed respite to our teens. Each retreat is $385 and includes transportation from B'nai Tikvah in Walnut Creek to the campsite.

Supplement: The true cost of offering our CCM Wednesday night program is $1135 per student. Since we aim to keep enrollment costs low for everyone, we seek community grants and donations throughout the year to offset costs. When registering below, if you would like to pay an additional amount ($450) to cover the difference between our tuition and our cost per student, please do so in the “Supplement” field.

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 $25.

Cookbook

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!

Teen Enrollment Form

Welcome to 2020-21/5781 at Contra Costa Midrasha! CCM remains committed to our teens' Jewish identity and experiences, the construction of Jewish teen community and friendships, building their mental health, and connecting them to positive role models.

Due to the current unknown realities of the Covid-19 health crisis, Contra Costa Midrasha is planning the new year along three tracks - fully in person, in person but in small groups and virtually. Our top priority is always the health and safety of our community. Signing up before June 30th also enrolls* your teen in our continued summer programming (June 24 - August 5).

(*By enrolling before June 30th, you won't have to pay a tuition fee for your teen to participate in summer programs. However, one or two programs planned for this summer may require some added fees. We'll keep you posted!)

Please remember that you need to sign up each teen (in your family) separately.
