If you have been searching for a comprehensive introduction to the basics of Judaism, consider enrolling in the Florence Melton Adult Mini-School, an international network of over 65 schools affiliated with the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. The St. Louis school has been open since 1989 and to date has graduated over 800 adult learners.

The Melton courses are designed specifically for adults. Classes meet once a week throughout the academic year; no texts, no homework, no grades. The course will provide a clear, in-depth overview of Jewish belief, Jewish practice, Jewish history, and Jewish ethics, in a pluralist classroom setting.
