Maimonides School

[EduCativ]

Maimonides School is proud to be the beacon of Modern Orthodox education in New England and welcomes students from Early Childhood through 12th Grade. Maimonides is more than a school it is a vibrant community whose members embody chesed, Middot to vote, compassion for others, and unconditional love for the State of Israel.

Maimonides School’s mission is to produce religiously observant, educated Jews who will remain faithful to religious beliefs, values, and practices as they take their place as contributing members of general society. Maimonides provides students with both an outstanding religious education and an excellent college preparatory general education in an atmosphere that reinforces their commitment to the values of the Torah and the observance of mitzvot, and that fosters a strong sense of identification with Medinat Yisrael.

Torah and mitzvot – the study and practice of halacha – are the quintessential core of Judaism, and they must be taught in an honest, sophisticated, and challenging manner. Torah study is enriched by our understanding of science, philosophy, literature, art, and music, which in turn is enhanced and enlightened by the teachings of the Torah. The school provides an all-encompassing religious atmosphere in which the observance of halacha in the totality of its ethical and ritual components is central. Our Goals:

• To expose our students to the beauty of the Jewish tradition and the power and profundity of the Jewish faith.
• To encourage our students to strive for moral and spiritual excellence.
• To provide our students with the finest possible general studies education so that they can continue their academic training in the colleges and universities of their choice.
• To produce graduates who will become respected and contributing members of the Jewish and general communities.
• To forge in our students a spiritual bond and sense of identification with the State of Israel.
• To imbue our students with an attitude of respect toward one’s fellow man (k’vod habit) and love of one’s fellow Jew (ahavat Yisrael).

Maimonides students are avid learners, eager to engage with each other, with their teachers, and with their community. They develop into well-rounded adults with a strong foundation in Modern Orthodox learning, values, and traditions, well-prepared to meet the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century. The combination of an unparalleled dual curriculum in Judaic and General Studies and an emphasis on moral and spiritual development propel our students to succeed both in school and beyond. Our alumni are a living testament to the Maemo Experience, excelling in a wide array of fields and contributing in meaningful ways to their communities, and remain closely connected to our school.

The best way to experience the vibrancy of our school and the warmth of our community is to come and meet our students and faculty, sit in on some classes, and see for yourself why Maimonides is so much more than a school. You will be able to experience firsthand our commitment to excellence in general and Judaic studies, our dedication to Torah and Middot, and our love for Israel.
