Modern Jewish education still leaves much to be desired.
Too many day schools still employ educational practices that disenfranchise students. Our tradition is too precious to pass along through schools that do not embody our Jewish values.
It’s time to put the student experience front and center.
JEIC was created to seek out solutions that work. We’re a movement of Jewish day school educators, funders, influencers, and consumers committed to helping schools catalyze radical improvement through new approaches and initiatives.
