Shaloh House JDS welcomes a diverse Jewish population, with the objective to teach the splendor and depth of Judaism, based on orthodox teachings, in a way that is sensitive to family differences and expectations. Derech Eretz and Menschlikeit are essential features of the program.
The school’s philosophy is to challenge students to reach their potential through an exciting curriculum that continuously sparks their intellectual interests, develops their skills, and builds their self-confidence.
Each subject (mathematics, English, history, social studies, Judaics, computer logic, science, etc.) is taught by subject matter experts who are passionate about their field and teach in a way that motivates the children to learn.
Mathematics is an early, important central component of the curriculum, serving as a foundation for logical reasoning skills.
With small class sizes and expert teachers in their field, the school accommodates students with advanced learning requirements.
Students are tested periodically by the administration to ensure they are grasping the material, and that teachers are being effective.
Public speaking is an important part of the overall curriculum and woven into the classroom across subjects.
Tutors are provided, generally at no cost, for children who need extra help.
In order to facilitate the most successful learning for students, the school is committed to frequent, full and open communication among parents, teachers and the administration.
A diverse after school enrichment program, also taught by subject matter experts, enables continued learning and fun for those who enjoy the extra hours at the school.
Children are provided a hot breakfast and lunch, and together eat in the school-dining hall. This provides a wonderful, community building opportunity across age ranges and classrooms.
Shaloh House JDS is a community of families. Together we are continuously striving to do the most for our children.
