[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What do people think of Temple Sinai? I know they have a great nursery school but it doesn't work for working parents. I went to a tot Shabbat but it wasn't very friendly. [/quote]

The nursery school is exactly what it says it is -- a nursery school.  It isn't a preschool, it doesn't offer after care. It just provides a wonderful, warm environment for kids.  It isn't something that works for most working parents.  If that isn't your situation, it is great.

Sure, but my point was when someone asks about Sinai, there is usually a response about the preschool. I'm interested in joining this synagogue (in my neighborhood) but was curious about how it is for families who don't do the preschool. My experience at the tot Shabbat was that most people already seemed to know each other already and wasn't super friendly. [/quote]

Plenty of families haven't done the nursery school.  And there are many families (Jewish and not) who who do the nursery school.  We met a lot of people through the nursery school, but I'm sure we would have been fine without it.

I hear what you are saying about Tot Shabbat.  It is a big temple and not everyone knows each other.  I've gone to tot Shabbats (I'm sure that isn't the plural) where we knew no one.  I am not the most outgoing person around, but we just plunked ourselves down and started talking to people.  If nothing else, sit down at the rabbi's table; they'll talk.

Good luck.[/quote]
