Online Learning with Real Life Growth

I'm forwarding an email from my son Natan's current high school showing his remarkable  Hebrew reading skills that far exceed his peers who attended traditional school. 

I hope you can shep some nachas with us and the entire JOS family. Natan attended JOS for his entire grade school and middle school years - 8 years as a JOS student. 

I attribute thse skills to his incredible Rabbaim at JOS as Rabbi Jacobs, Rabbi Yarmush, Rabbi Bressman and Rabbi WIlansky. 

With much gratitude,

Adam LOVES school! I never imagined it is possible to get kids so excited and active at learning in remote learning in Zoom.
I was so skeptical before starting at JOS, because I felt remote Zoom will not manage to "connect" my kid. That he will just sit board and passive, and not like it.
But immediatly, from day one, Morah Yehudis immediatly connected with Adam, and got him to sign, and dance, and talk, and laugh, and run around, and do lots of things! In this very short month he already learned SO much, in English, in Hebrew, and in Jewish traditions and Mitzvot! 
I would like to give a huge ברכה for Yehudis, for giving so much energy and love in every single lesson.

Thank you for always seeing the BEST in Talia.

Thank you for always showing so much patience and kindness. Thank you for nurturing her.

Thank you for teaching more than Alef and Bais... you taught her a love of Judaic learning that will last a lifetime. Thank you for believing in her and trusting in us! Thank you for loving her and showing her her potential!

My daughter has been learning slowly to read full Hebrew sentences and about the weekly Torah reading. She also loves participating in extracurricular activities, this Sunday she made her first Challah! You are already going above and beyond and I would like you to know how much we all appreciate this.

Again, I want to thank you and your amazing staff for all the wonderful work that you do (makes me wish I had this growing up!)

Vinnie absolutely LOVES school (for the first time ever.) She wakes up extra early to prepare. She loves her teachers and enjoys the girls. She is learning a lot too.

Living so far apart from family and in an area with a small Jewish community, I am so appreciative that she is able to get such a supportive Jewish family in school and a proper Jewish education.

Our daughter is always quite enthusiastic to share at our Shabbat meals what she's learned during the week which has led to spirited discussions, so thank you very much for keeping the enthusiasm going!

The entire administration and professional team and all of the teachers are simply amazing. 
JOS is a role model to other schools!!
