School Notes
- Mirowitz students have it all: a hands-on, academically rigorous curriculum, lessons in social responsibility and meaningful Jewish learning.
- During their nine years (K-8) at Mirowitz, students trav- el nearly 18,000 miles to restore prairies, lobby elected officials, test water quality of streams, pick vegetables on a kibbutz and walk in the footsteps of MLK. As they do so, they joyfully connect with their heritage and with Israel, and develop skills for a lifetime of leadership.
- Our integrated general and Jewish studies curriculum aims for the infinite potential of elementary and middle school education. Nine outdoor learning labs - includ- ing an amphibian pond, butterfly gardens, nature trail, prairie and vegetable garden - offer opportunities to think deeply, strengthen teamwork skills and under- stand our Jewish responsibility to care for the earth. Music, art, band, physical education and drama complement the academic program. More than half of our students play on one or more of our 22 athletic teams.
- Mirowitz students consistently exceed both public and independent school norms on standardized tests. They graduate prepared for the most competitive high schools and with a moral compass that will guide them through- out their lives. Our alumni say the feel informed about Israel and are able to confidently take a stand. Community rabbis often rely on them to teach religious school classes, to lead youth services and to serve as youth ambassadors.
- Our pluralistic community represents the diversity of the Jewish community. With an enrollment of 170 stu- dents in grades K-8, Mirowitz is committed to a small student-teacher ratio to maximize individualized atten- tion. Lunches are prepared in a kosher kitchen using only the healthiest locally sourced or organic foods - some grown in the school's own garden.
- Mirowitz is accredited by ISACS, and offers a full-day kindergarten, as well as pre-care and post-care. Financial assistance is available.
