Character is Paramount
Our focus on character development involves three key areas: contentment/well-being, traits, and our Jewish Values. In Lower School, we work with children on understanding that their feelings are valid and that they have control over their body and their thinking. Our character development centers on self-control, curiosity, and empathy through living our Jewish Values: emet (truth), tzedek (justice), chesed (kindness), kavod (respect), tikkun olam (repairing the world), k’lal yisrael (community).
