process in the winter of 2020/2021 by participating in comprehensive surveys, follow-up discussion and analysis of results, multiple webinar sessions, case study workshops, and more. Community Hub: Also part of our Strategic Plan, under the category of Inclusivity, was the goal of establishing Levine to become more of a Community Hub for both Jewish and non-Jewish families. Through the introduction of our school’s first summer camp for elementary and middle school students in 2019, called Summer@Levine, the school has been seeking to expand its auxiliary programming in such a way as to bring families from the Jewish community and beyond to campus for events, programming, and activities—making use of our campus for evening programs during the school year, and of course making our campus a location of activity for students and parents through the summer as well.
