His post-secondary studies include the Rabbinical College of America in Morristown, New Jersey, the Rabbinical College of Canada in Montreal, Quebec, and two years of Talmud study and Jewish community outreach in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He was ordained in 1984 by the Central Lubavitch Yeshiva in Brooklyn, New York. Rabbi Weiss has taught every elementary grade, from first through sixth, and enjoys sharing his love of the weekly parsha and Jewish holidays with his students. In addition to teaching third grade this year at CJDS and he continues to visit The Jewish Preschool on Sardis each Friday to teach the preschool children about Shabbat. In his spare time, Rabbi Weiss tutors candidates for Bar Mitzvah, teaches a weekly Torah shiur (class) for adults, and harasses the employees of food manufacturing facilities across the Carolinas that are under his kosher supervision. His six girls and five boys (not to mention his lovely and talented wife of 22 years, Channie Weiss) are his pride and joy.
