We’re looking for a few good schools! Thanks to a generous grant from the Jewish Funds for Justice, RAVSAK has created an exciting program in social justice programming and leadership for middle schools.
This program will empower classroom teachers with the skills, tools, knowledge and dispositions requisite to imparting meaningful social action education. Teachers will gain valuable resources, guidance, and insights enabling them to strengthen the connection between classroom learning and social action. This program represents a significant, exciting opportunity for teacher development, all expenses paid.
The centerpiece of the program is a two-day teacher training institute, scheduled for November 5th-6th. Here are some of the benefits that participants will receive at the institute:
Besides the teacher training institute, schools will also receive the following support for strengthening their middle-school social justice programming:
Schools with enrollment under 150 students are eligible to send 1 teacher to the training; schools with enrollment over 150 students are eligible to send 2 teachers. All participating teachers will receive a certificate in social justice education.
