Today, All Saints' Episcopal Church is not only a beautiful church, it is a friendly, welcoming, and open-minded community of families and individuals, kids and seniors, longtime church-goers and newcomers.

The Jewish Community Center of Harrison is a progressive, egalitarian congregation of over 450 member families affiliated with the United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism. We were among the first in our area to count women in the quorum of worshipers and call them to the Torah for aliyot. The JCC of Harrison's daily, Sabbath, Festival, and High Holy Day services retain a traditional flavor. Our founding members set the tone of intimacy and warmth almost 40 years ago, which has not dissipated through the years. We welcome newcomers with open arms and invite people who share our values to join our synagogue community.

The most important endeavor in any community is the cooperative effort of parents, community members, and educators to ensure the best possible education of its children. The teacher’s responsibility is to guide each child in mastering the fundamental tools of learning to the fullest extent of that child’s ability. The parents’ responsibility is to take an active role in the schooling process and to support it financially and morally.
Educational experiences should provide the opportunity for the most complete physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, moral, social and intellectual growth possible. The skills, habits and attitudes developed by the children from these experiences should prepare them to live successfully in the world of today and tomorrow.
This purposeful growth is directed by stressing the students’ responsibility, as well as their rights as citizens in our democracy. The educational process employed by the Harrison Schools attempts to enhance each child’s development, thus being able as a well-adjusted human being, to thrive within our community, our nation and the world.
