Reimagining Jewish studies through Design Thinking

Drawing from both traditional Jewish wisdom and contemporary pedagogical insights, our innovative school accompaniment program introduces the ENGAJE model - a unique approach to strengthening students' Jewish connection through all subject areas. Instead of treating Jewish identity as separate from academic studies, we guide schools in creating an integrated framework that moves from values exploration to meaningful connections and natural expansion.
This process revolutionizes traditional curriculum development: schools learn to reimagine their Jewish studies programs through a dynamic process that enhances both Jewish meaning and academic readiness. Through our guided process, educational teams master the ENGAJE model's principles while developing practical implementation strategies. Each school becomes a living laboratory where educators design, test, and refine new approaches that bridge Jewish wisdom with contemporary educational needs.
Our four-month program combines intensive in-person sessions with regular online meetings, supporting schools as they develop and pilot their new approaches. The result is a transformative educational model that strengthens students' personal connection to Judaism, develops academic readiness, and deepens their sense of collective resilience - understanding that belonging to the Jewish world is a source of strength and growth.
