The New York School of Education of HUC-JIR is comprised of education, rabbinical, and cantorial students and offers the unique opportunity to study and worship together and become part of active communities of learning, of faith, and of tikkun olam.
The School of Education is launching a new, comprehensive, and exciting program of study, providing a thorough grounding in Jewish studies, Hebrew, and the theory and practice of Jewish education through a mixture of formal classroom learning and supervised, experiential learning. Situated in New York City, the preeminent laboratory for learning, surrounded by the resources of major academic institutions, museums, libraries, and cultural centers, the New York School of Education has unique opportunities for internships, job placements, and involvement with inspired practitioners.
This program, created with an eye on the future of Jewish education, strives to meet the expectations of Jewish educational communities in the New York area and around the country. Through the development of an emerging generation of innovative Jewish educators, clinically trained to work with families and adults in both formal and informal settings, the new directions of the New York School of Education will begin to transform the Jewish educational system.
