Vaad HaChinuch – Directors of Education
Our Vaad is composed of three volunteer Rabbis who meet with the Principal and the Executive Director every 6 to 8 weeks (and more often when necessary) in order to oversee the implementation of the mission statements of the school and ensure that the highest quality education is being provided in a safe environment that is in accordance with the directives of the Rebbe and our mesorah.
*NEW* Two members have been added to the Vaad to serve as Parent Representatives to ensure that our growing student population remains adequately represented. These positions will remain active for a two-year term.
The Vaad does not discuss specific students or specific incidents as they pertain to particular students, rather they focus on global school policies, issues and staffing.
If you have an issue of broad concern that you feel is being incorrectly addressed or ignored by the operating school administration, you may contact the Vaad using the email links below to set up a meeting.
