Welcome 8th-12th Graders! 

Temple Shalom is beginning to reboot its Youth Group! In the past, Temple Shalom's Youth Group was called SHAFTY (SHAlom Federation of Temple Youth). We were active members of the regional youth group- NFTY-NE. This year, NFTY-NE is also trying to re-establish itself! So yay to more way for Jewish teens to connect with other Jewish teens! Stay tuned for staffing updates and plans! We are working on a new name or deciding to keep the original one- other options are T.O.TS (Teens of Temple Shalom)
