Every other Thursday, JEC students will benefit from an hashkafa initiative, new to the school this year. With a variety of learning modalities including Ask the Rabbi sessions, shiurei klali, shmuzin and more, each student can learn about important and relevant topics that speak directly to him. Last week, the ninth grade had a special shiur and learning with Rabbi Malitzky and the 10th-12th grades had an Ask the Rabbi session with Rabbis Sauber, Oppenheimer and Rich.

Initial reports have been extremely positive, as students had the opportunity to ask those questions that were most meaningful to them, on any topic of their choice.
