Knowledge, and Character; thus, the purpose of the Levine experience is to educate and develop the whole child in order to empower them to become confident, ethical citizens and leaders. As part of our current Strategic Plan, passed by the Levine Board in May of 2019, our administrative team included the following academic ideals as representative of our educational philosophy:
Educational Philosophy
Critical Thinking We encourage exploration and intellectual and objective analysis before reaching conclusions and making judgements.
Global Citizenship Through the lens of Jewish Tradition and tikkun olam , we promote the responsibilities and duties that come with being an ethical and humane partner in our society and world
Creativity We promote the use of innovation, imagination and originality, in our approach to learning.
Collaboration Through positive, mutually respectful relationships, we build effective working and learning communities.
Growth Mindset We believe that each person has innate talents and strengths that can be fostered through dedication, perseverance, and hard work inspiring a love of learning and resilience. Community We embrace the full spectrum of Jewish rituals and practices and encourage each student to value his/her unique heritage and pathway in the context of Jewish History. Preparatory Curriculum Students are equipped with the skills, knowledge, and character to succeed in all areas of life after Levine.
Confidence An emotionally safe environment fosters a feeling of assurance arising from one’s abilities and qualities.
Zionistic Our school community embodies a strong connection with Israel, its people, culture and language.
