OUR PROMISE IN ACTION
CREATING ARTISTS AT MJDS
MJDS students are given a space
to practice and hone their artistic
talents in the school’s art room.
Through a variety of media and
formats, we help mold students
into creators and thinkers while
providing a space where they
enjoy expressing themselves from
junior kindergarten through the
eighth grade. Students enjoy
open-ended projects, where they
can let their mind and ideas run
free to explore the arts.
“As art reflects the human
experience from all periods of
history and from all corners of
the world, it helps them see the
world through different eyes.”
Gev. Porat, Art Teacher, Omanut
Program Coordinator
ENACTING TEAM SPIRIT AT MJDS
Athletics are an integral part of the school
experience and students at MJDS are granted the
opportunity to develop skills needed for personal
growth through an inclusive athletic program.
Students discover healthy competition and what
it means to be part of a team. The athletics
program at MJDS also exercises Jewish values
— where students can put what they learn into
action with their peers.
