Brandeis School
School Notes Overview:
Brandeis School mission and vision are firmly grounded in our successful past. More than seventy years ago, our founder, Rabbi Irving Miller, declared the need for a curriculum that fully integrated Jewish and American values and ideals as a foundation for a successful contemporary life. The continued success of the Brandeis School lies in our ability to achieve the highest standards of academic excellence while ensuring a thorough Judaic education geared to kindling the eternal light of Judaism and learning in each child from generation to generation. The Brandeis Parents' Association is an integral part of our school. The Parents' Association is funded solely through fund raising activities and through the collection of annual PA dues. Our policy is to put funds we receive back into the school to enhance our childrens' Brandeis experience....
