Teens (8th - 12th Grade)
Temple Shalom Teens have a variety of options for connecting with one another, being actively involved with the temple programming and getting involved in Colorado Springs Jewish community opportunities.
Madrichim Team
Post b’nai mitzvah age teens are encouraged to explore volunteer roles as madrichim (“leaders”) teen teaching assistants in the temple religious school. Several madrichim opportunities exist to suit the needs of teens interested in sharing an on-going commitment to youth education programming.

- Office Madrichim assist the education director with administrative responsibilities such as attendance/tzedakah collection and recording, management of supply room materials and resources, copying materials for teachers, education director or other staff and inventory of religious school snack supplies.
