We are happy to announce that Rabbi Shmuel Schneerson, co-director of the hugely successful summer program Yeshivas Kayitz Yerushalayim, will be joining JETS staff as a full-time teacher and mashpia. Rabbi Schneerson, who holds an M.A. in Psychology and Marriage and Family Therapy and a certificate from the Victor Frankel Institute of Logotherapy, is uniquely positioned to further JETS’ mission of combining Torah learning with real-world application.
We are excited to share that JETS alumnus Sam Liberow was recently featured in the Jewish Journal, one of the largest Jewish news outlets in the United States.
We are excited to announce that, G-d willing, JETS will be opening it’s doors for the next academic year on August 25th, 2020.
Back in February, JETS invited a dozen local Jewish schools to a Yom Hashoah memorial ceremony that was scheduled to take place today.
In these uncertain times, we’re all feeling vulnerable and insecure. Yet it’s important to remember that this is also a meaningful time.
This past week, our JETS community suffered a terrible loss. Menachem Mendel Krafchik, one of our JETS alumni, tragically passed away in a car accident in Pennsylvania at the tender age of 23.
At JETS, we believe that growth happens outside one’s comfort zone, so part of our mission is to push the limits of what our students think is possible for themselves.
“I can’t do this. I’ve tried it over and over again, and it’s impossible.” How many times have we heard children, students, or even adults use “I can’t” when it comes to performing a task? Enter “learned helplessness.”
We invite you to join us in wishing students, teachers and administrators the best of luck as we kick off our 2019-2020 academic year!
Even once school is out, we want the learning and inspiration to continue. Our staff is hard at work this summer making JETS even more awesome. Here’s a sneak peek into what’s going on behind the scenes!
