This edition of INSIDE THE CONVERSATION reflects on the feedback of a small focus group of teachers, parents and alumni organized by Dr. Tammy Jacobowitz and Ms. Shira Schiowitz. In response to the disruption caused by Covid-19, they wanted to think more deeply about the intersections between school, home and community and wondered what they could learn from this unusual moment in history about areas of potential alignment and tension between the values of school and home.
Rabbi Hain is Rosh Beit Midrash at SAR HS and Rabbi of YIOZ of North Riverdale/Yonkers. He recently served as the Daniel Jeremy Silver Fellow and as a Visiting Scholar at Harvard University’s Center for Jewish Studies.
Ms. Shira Schiowitz is a Tanakh teacher and mentor. She spent most of her teaching years at Ma'ayanot Yeshiva High School and was one of the founders of Lamdeinu in Teaneck. Shira received her BA from Stern College and her MA in Bible from Bernard Revel Graduate School.
