What is the CJDS holiday party?

CJDS organized a holiday party for over 50 dedicated and hard-working construction workers, Reed Construction, at the New Campus. Electricians, communications installers, carpet and tile layers, mill workers, carpenters, bricklayers and fillers, plumbers, and more gathered together in our new Beit Midrash and heard a little bit about the school they are building. We told the story of Chicago Jewish Day School and how we teach our students about our heritage. We also informed them how we integrate into our neighborhood with projects and relationships with public schools and other parochial schools. We encourage our students to participate in the community and caring about their neighbors and others in our community that might need our help.

What is the greatest cognitive growth?

At Chicago Jewish Day School children learn with and from one another in a caring community in both social as well as academic learning. Interdependence counts at least as much as independence. We help learners engage with ideas and drive each other’s thinking — to build knowledge, to care and to act." -CJDS Educational Philosophy Statement

What is the goal of technology education?

The goal of technology education is to develop in learners an understanding of technology skills and concepts, as well as the importance and connection to everyday life. We are excited to enhance our technology inside and outside the classrooms at the new campus.
