Preparing high-quality Judaic curricula while simultaneously planning, delivering, and assessing lessons can often be a struggle for teachers. Together with the LaHaV curriculum project and world-class content experts, the Rabbi Sacks Legacy seeks to transform this dynamic. This exciting program will bring the wisdom and Torah of Rabbi Sacks to the classroom through a yearlong curriculum design and teacher training program for Middle and High School educators focused on one of three tracks in Jewish Philosophy, Chumash, or Parshat HaShavuah.


Teachers will learn from world-class content experts in Jewish Philosophy and work alongside curriculum design experts in order to combine inspirational content with cutting-edge pedagogy to build courses that will be relevant and adaptable for their schools.
