Each week when I read the Friday newsletter I feel great. It makes me proud of what our school, our students, and our faculty and staff accomplish each and every day.
- Jessica, Alumni Parent, Board ChairwomanSchechter shaped me into the person I am today. All of the teachers really reinforced the idea of respect, love toward Judaism, and being a good person.
- Maddy, Class of 2014We are beyond thrilled with the rigorous secular education, the community and the spiritual values our children are being taught.
- Jill, ParentI am a proud alum of Schechter and cannot begin to measure the impact it has had on my life. Unlike any other school, Schechter has a focus on high-level thinking and advanced academic skills that go beyond the classroom, but in daily life.
- Ben, Alumni and Board MemberAs Reform Jews, we were nervous about the religious aspect, but at Schechter, you are free to practice your religion as you see fit. We don't feel different than and we don't feel any pressure to be "more religious". At the same time, we respect those that are more observant than us and love that there is a place for everyone.
- Jill, ParentPassover doesn’t just mean sitting around a table reading a book! Our younger students bring the Passover story to life through hands-on activities that will help make their seders more meaningful.
