Our Goal

The Mishmar is a structured night seder created for boys in grades 5th through 9th, with a focus on giving each boy a warm, positive, and meaningful connection to Torah and to a dedicated rebbe.

Each night, the boys learn in small groups with a rebbe who gets to know them personally, encourages their growth, and becomes a steady, approachable presence in their lives.

The program combines serious learning with positive incentives and a strong sense of belonging. Snacks are provided, Thursday night features hot food, and boys can earn points toward rewards from Amazon or ZB Bookstore.

Special highlights throughout the year include Chanukah and Purim parties, an end-of-year Melava Malka, and an end-of-year trip.

With five locations across the Tri-State area, The Mishmar is designed to give boys a consistent place to learn, connect, and grow — while giving parents the confidence that their sons are spending their evenings in a healthy, uplifting Torah environment.
