Hear From Our Community

The Shorashim Academy Way

Leah came into the car today after I picked her up from the bus, and she was just sitting there. Then she looked up and said, ‘I am just so so happy. I just love Shorashim…I love it! I just love the feeling there…Everybody is so kind, and the Shorashim principles are so important…I used to hate going to school. But I love it. I love going to Shorashim.” (Excerpt from voice note)
Parent of Leah
The respect and positive vibes are visible each and every day in the classrooms, at morning assembly, and at our staff meetings. I am grateful to work with such outstanding colleagues, and feel blessed and wildly lucky to be part of the Shorashim family.
