  • Heschel Curriculum Guide
    ABRAHAM JOSHUA HESCHEL DAY SCHOOL Curriculum Guide TRADITION CHARACTER COMMUNITY קהילה מסורת אישיות 17701 Devonshire Street, Northridge, CA 91325 Phone: 818.368.5781 www.heschel.com © Abraham Joshua Heschel Day School ABRAHAM JOSHUA HESCHEL DAY SCHOOL Mission Statement Abraham Joshua Heschel Day School, a community Jewish day school, provides a rich dual-curricular education that encourages independent and critical thinking, lifelong learning, self-awareness, and compassion. In partnership with our families, we inspire our students to become active, dedicated, ethical, and informed citizens and leaders who are committed to Israel and the vitality of the Jewish people. Welcome to Heschel! This Curriculum Guide describes the content, goals, and philosophy of academic and extracurricular programs of Abraham Joshua Heschel Day School. Each class has been carefully designed to enable us to share our passion for learning with Heschel students. Middle school is a time of transition, punctuated by dramatic physical, emotional, and intellectual changes, accompanied by leaps in independence. Seemingly overnight, a student’s voice or height changes, interests emerge, friendships ebb and flow. Students proceed through these changes at their own pace; each day in middle school provides new experiences and learning opportunities. What a Curriculum Guide cannot reflect is the part of the middle school experience that occurs “between the lines,” in the daily interactions between teachers and students, in the hallways, and among the students themselves. As faculty, we are aware of the fragility and malleability of adolescents and our significance as role models in their healthy development. What do we expect of this varied group of individuals? Not so much a discrete body of knowledge as an impact on values, personal identity, and sense of curiosity.
