Jewish Day School EducationScholarship NeedJewish day school education is expensive, but represents an excellent investment in building Jewish identity, values, and community. The National Jewish Day School Foundation provides matching monies for tuition scholarship.The time of life when we are most susceptible and open to spiritual nurturing is childhood... Virtually all children who attend…years of day school marry a fellow Jew, stay committed to the Jewish people and maintain a spiritual connection with God throughout their lives...The tragedy is that most young Jewish families can't afford to send their children to day school...It is our responsibility to make sure that high-quality, day school education is available, affordable...to all who seek it, irrespective of their (Jewish) religious affiliation. (George Hanus, World Jewish Digest)) Jewish Day schools (are) significant predictors of Jewish identity, (and) are worthy of serious financial investment from individuals and communities.
