| The Saul Mirowitz Day School—Reform
Jewish Academy is a learning community comprised
of students, teachers, parents, board members, staff
and other adult community members committed to lifelong
learning.
Children come to SMDS-RJA as active agents in
their own learning and represent the future of
our community and our tradition.
As Jewish architects of time, we value each school
day and the opportunity to create a dynamic, guided
educational process that:
• supports students in their own learning
• provides meaningful learning experiences
with many opportunities for acquiring and expressing
knowledge
• encourages inquiry into the world around
us, and respect and appreciation for differences
• responds to each student’s intellectual,
social, emotional, ethical, aesthetic, spiritual
and physical development
• Encourages intellectual risk taking
• Maintains small class size to maximize
individualized learning
• Integrates Jewish themes with academic
and personal experiences
Educators at SMDS-RJA take ideas seriously, believe
in inquiry, and subscribe to the limitless possibility
of human growth and progress.
Reform Judaism is the foundation upon which the
development of the curriculum and school culture
rests.
