Culture, ethics, belief, spirituality.  These are not simple additions to our curriculum – they are our curriculum.  We have created a double helix that spirals through our school that ultimately produces a truly fully formed ethical, informed, intelligent and well-rounded individual.  We recognize that knowledge is useless without context and this alone is the crux of identity.  “Who am I” is a question that grows from the inside and extends outward.  Robert M. Beren Academy gives a deliberate and meaningful Jewish context so your child will intelligently explore and challenge who they are and who they can be.   

General Studies classes meet three times per week (two 80 minute blocks and a 40 minute block). The eighty-minute block encourages collaborative peer based learning and allows individualized teaching. Even more crucially, the time really lends to in depth mastery of each component.

 

Hebrew/Judaic Studies classes meet for 40 minutes five times per week. This allows for for flexibility in topics and reinforces the learning.

 

Our Middle School dual curriculum uniquely prepares our students for Higher Education.  Both empirical and research data demonstrate that students engrossed in dual curriculum, show higher level critical thinking skills, greater language integration and overall mastery of all subjects.
