EQUIPPING EDUCATORS TO TRANSFORM CHILDREN’S LIVES
A strong Jewish education in our community begins with strong educators. Through our Professional Development & School Services, CJE ensures that educators at synagogues, preschools and day schools have the tools, methods and strategies to meet the needs of their students in ways that will transform the students’ lives. We provide consultation, classes, workshops, conferences and curriculum designed for teachers and school directors throughout the year.
How We Equip Educators:
- 100 students at 5 synagogue schools piloted ShalomLearning, a nationally recognized, technology and values-based Judaic education program
- 175 educators, volunteers, professionals and community members attended CJE’s inaugural Day of Awareness: Educating and Supporting Students with Disabilities conference
- $22,000 awarded to 9 local schools for Jewish service learning projects
- 10 local classes communicated with their partners in Israel through School Twinning projects
- 3 Special Education Coordinators worked in 7 synagogue schools to provide training and resources for students with disabilities impacting a total of 900 students
300 educators at 20 local Jewish schools received training, leadership development, resources, and connections to professional networks through CJE this year.
