Academics

At JPPS we pride ourselves on the unique institution we are. Our main goals are to foster academic excellence and a strong Jewish identity within a caring community. Our institution is distinctive and unique, offering the best in both general and Judaic studies.

Jewish tradition guides our curriculum and our calendar. The study of the Hebrew and Yiddish languages and of Jewish traditions is our students' connection to the Jewish people world-wide and to Israel.

The environment is a warm and caring one, with parental involvement encouraged and fostered. Our highly qualified and dedicated faculty constantly review their curriculum and programs to ensure that we remain on the cutting edge of early-childhood and elementary education. Students learn about responsibility, respect, and problem solving. Our goal is to assist students by developing skills that will carry them through life, such as initiative and flexibility. Our student-teacher ratio is very desirable. The school's constant mission and challenge is to meet the needs of each and every student.
