A school needs to be much more than an institution of learning – in the 21st century, it must be a place of social and emotional growth, a space in which values are nurtured alongside the critical thinking skills that are developed. Mandel JDS’ curriculum is not only knowledge-based – it’s values-based.
We believe that our students have a responsibility – to and within their particular community, and to the larger community in which they live. Education is not solely about the knowledge they will attain, but about the people they will become.
