ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Yeshivos struggle to motivate excellence in General Studies. The Torah speaks to every facet of life, therefore we can teach a comprehensive and intellectually stimulating General Studies curriculum through the lens of the Torah. Machon Menoras Hachochmah guides students to perform above peers in standardized statewide testing, reinforce values learned in Torah classes, and respond to secular perspectives.
Machon Menoras Hachochmah’s General Studies curricula are thoughtfully aligned with national Common Core standards. This ensures that yeshiva students do not sacrifice academic excellence as their commitment to Torah and its values are reinforced.
