Curriculum

Communicating the timeless deep messages of Torah and Chassidus, making them relevant today.

At JSOI we are implementing a unique way of learning. Our goal is to encourage a motivating environment for our students where they can fully absorb the depth and oneness of Torah. Subjects are taught according to a topic with an underlying theme of areas such as acceptance, self-love, and subservience. We take a multi-faceted approach to learning and each topic is taught from the perspective of halacha, Chassidus, philosophy, and gemara. Through this teaching model, the girls will finish the year with a clear vision of how the spiritual and physical can be blended, and how they can apply them personally.
