Our teaehers are group of dedi- eated adults who are not only knowledgeable about the material they present, but passionate about transmitting their knowledge to the next generation. They give up spending Wednesday evenings with their families to share their love of Judaism and the Jewish people with our teens. Every Wednesday, at Shalom Park, 200 Jewish teens are busily engaging in all sorts of Jewish learn ing. Some are studying from the aneient texts, some are listening to and translating Israeli roek musie and some are eooking Israeli food and still others are interaet- ing with bereaved fami lies in our sister eity of Hadera, Israel. There is something for every stu dent and every learning style at Charlotte’s Hebrew High. It is no surprise that the student board of Hillel at almost every eollege in the Carolinas has a Hebrew High grad on it. Our goal is to ereate the future leaders of our eommunity.
