Sunday School 

Our Sunday School runs from September through May, 10:00am - 12:30pm at Springside Chestnut Hill Academy in Northwest Philadelphia. We have weekly classes for Kindergarten through 9th grade.

We strive to make our Sunday school as affordable as possible while also paying our staff wages with dignity.

Folkshul is a member run co-operative. One way we keep tuition down is by having our adult members contribute their time to the school's operations. Co-op shifts include being on a holiday committee, fundraising, serving on the board, helping with set up/break down, or contributing a unique skill. 

A limited number of partial scholarships are available each year. To contribute to our scholarship fund or request a partial scholarship please email us at
