Precision academics. Real-life skills. Every single day.
Skills and content, working together.
Our English curriculum builds strong readers, clear writers, and students who can discuss ideas with confidence. Designed and refined by our Head of School, it keeps instruction practical, joyful, and built for mastery.
Math uses HMH Into Math, and we track growth with NWEA MAP Growth. Afternoons bring those skills to life through science, social studies, and real-world projects.
Joyful Jewish education, every day.
We use Torah 4 Children for Kriah, Bright Beginnings and Lashon HaTorah for Chumash, and Bright Beginnings for Gemara, all guided by the JSAT standards from COJDS.
Children see how Torah wisdom, mitzvot, and tradition guide daily decisions, build relationships, and strengthen community.
Character in everything we do.
Real-life skills are not a separate program at Pardes. They are embedded in how we teach, how we greet each other, and how we resolve challenges.
LeHashlim, our real-life skills curriculum, teaches collaboration, emotional management, and the skills the real world actually demands. Our teachers are skilled coaches who notice, model, and guide.
The details that matter.
- Class size
- No more than 20 students per class, with more than one teacher in every room.
- Homework
- Homework is reading review in Hebrew and English. Practice, practice, practice. Everything else happens during the school day.
- Enrichment
- Starting in 3rd grade, students explore foundational technology, including age-appropriate AI literacy and Waggle mathematics. AI literacy is taught with adult guidance, filtering, and clear boundaries, focused on responsible use, never unsupervised screen time.
Elementary learning in action.
