Stacey Frank, RJE
Stacey is passionate about helping children connect to Judaism in a way that is meaningful for them. These connections are as special and unique as each of her students. She holds a masters degree in Jewish Education from Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion and has earned the coveted title of RJE (Reform Jewish Educator). For more than 20 years, she has spent time envisioning and implementing Jewish education programs for children and their families. Five of those years were spent as an Education Director for a thriving Bucks County, PA synagogue. Stacey has also received several scholarships allowing her to travel to Israel and explore the complexities of the country and its culture. She and her family live in Ocean City, Maryland with their menagerie of rescued pets.
“We couldn’t be happier with our decision to work with Stacey Frank and Rabbi Elyssa from TacklingTorah. My daughter did not really take to the traditional Hebrew School environment. Stacey really worked hard to connect with her and find ways to make learning Hebrew fun and accessible. She helped her to build her self-confidence and to ensure that she was prepared for her Bat Mitzvah Day.”
“Love. Joy. Meaning. And all the nachas that came with a special day, Rabbi Elyssa and Stacey Frank helped to make our daughter’s Bat Mitzvah even more meaningful and spiritual. Everyone, from our immediate family to distant acquaintances, from the oldest grandparents to the youngest children, all felt very much a part of the ceremony Rabbi created. We’ll remember the day fondly forever, and we owe a big part of the memory to their special touch.”
