WE BELIEVE: An effective education must include a religious component. An effective Jewish education must include a balance between General and Judaic studies with an over-arching focus on scholarship. Opportunities must be provided for all Jewish children to receive a Jewish education. A quality program must include a caring and nurturing environment. Students should be taught respect for all individuals. Students should be prepared to become productive members of society.

Loyalty to Judaism and intelligent Jewishness cannot be separated from Jewish learning. Jewish learning sources in the Torah. Through professional instruction the Torah can be made accessible, in its original form, to every child. BELIEVE IN: The total education of the Jewish child.
