Ramaz Kindergarten Classroom Teacher

In the heart of New York City is Ramaz - a Modern Orthodox Day School with a rich history of Jewish education, academic distinction, and nurturing of individual abilities and aspirations. Anchored in the teaching of Torah and mitzvot (charitable deeds), students’ lives are enriched by an exceptional, devoted faculty; a Hebrew immersion program that begins in Nursery; a love for Israel; the cultural resources of Manhattan; and pride in their American heritage. To be a student at Ramaz is to be encouraged, supported, and inspired to discover the best in oneself and in others, and to gain a profound, spirited sense of responsibility to the world. The school, now in its 85th year, has a reputation for excellence both locally and internationally. We invite you to visit the website.
