A Jewish Day School is an educational institution that combines general studies with Jewish education. Students learn subjects like math, science, and language arts alongside Jewish history, Hebrew language, and religious studies. The curriculum is designed to foster both academic excellence and a strong Jewish identity. These schools often celebrate Jewish holidays and traditions, creating a community that emphasizes values such as tikkun olam (repairing the world) and chesed (kindness). Jewish Day Schools can vary in their level of religious observance, catering to different denominations within Judaism, including Orthodox, Conservative, and Reform practices.
