Curriculum & Approach
Our approach is inspired by progressive education and Jewish humanism. Instead of textbooks and rote memorization, children at Kol Am learn by doing.
Project-Based Learning
Each unit is built around a guiding question or theme, with children working together to create something meaningful — from plays and murals to community action projects.
Cultural & Ethical Exploration
We draw on Jewish history, literature, and traditions as sources of meaning, while encouraging children to ask big questions about justice, identity, and belonging.
Play & Creativity
Music, art, and storytelling are woven throughout, helping children experience Jewish culture with joy and imagination.
Community Connection
Families are invited to participate in celebrations, help with curriculum, and create new opportunities for connection, making Kol Am a community as much as a school.
Who We Are
We’re reimagining what Jewish education can look like for today’s families.
We’re not a Jewish Sunday School focused on reading and writing Hebrew.
We are a Saturday School where Jewish culture, ethics, and identity come alive through collaborative, project-based learning.
We’re not a religious school that teaches Judaism as beholden to supernatural authority.
We are a community where children learn that questioning, empathy, and responsibility are at the heart of Jewish life.
We’re not a traditional Jewish children’s program rooted in doctrine.
We are inspired by modern Jewish thinkers who remind us that human experience, solidarity, and imagination can guide us toward meaning and justice.
We’re not a Hebrew School or a Sunday School.
We are Kol Am — a community for families seeking a dynamic, justice-rooted, and inclusive Jewish education, where every child’s curiosity and creativity help shape the future of Jewish learning.
