Judaism with Purpose
At Jewish Culture High School, Torah is not just text that we learn, but live. Our students solidify their textual skills while embracing the importance of living a life guided by Torah values. Judaism shapes every aspect of our culture and defines how members of our community see themselves, interact with others, and understand their relationship with the larger world and earth itself.
The notion of “giving back”, or being a contributor to society, is not merely sourced throughout the Torah, it is a practice that is in the very foundation of our religion. Too often a typical high school schedule does not allow for the student to carve out ample time to volunteer and dedicate themselves to acts of chessed. In the JCHS model, our students will have a menu to choose from and will be dedicated to semester long acts of chessed. Our custom schedule will allow students to have the unique ability to give back to many worthy causes while not feeling the pressure to do so only after school hours.
