In this workshop we are going to explore enacting our pluralistic mission in ways that push our community to confront challenging issues. What are the skills and capacities we seek to instill in our students?  How can we prepare them to become people who are open to others even as they hold serious Jewish commitments and who can make a meaningful contribution to a world filled with diverse people?

About Conversations:

Conversations are an opportunity for colleagues to sit together for a facilitated conversation about an area of shared interest.

These sessions will not include formal presentations by expert speakers, rather they presume that through the shared expertise in the room, facilitated by knowledgeable peers, conference participants will learn new ways to move the needle in their schools in these areas of interest.
