A Dual Curriculum
that Delivers
At Bader Hillel Academy, our dual curriculum is not two separate tracks competing for time. It is one intentional, integrated educational experience that nurtures the whole child.
Students engage in a rigorous General Studies program alongside a rich and meaningful Judaic Studies curriculum, gaining the knowledge, skills, and values they need to succeed academically, grow personally, and live with purpose.
Real Outcomes of a Dual Curriculum
Our dual curriculum blends strong academics with Jewish learning in a way that feels balanced, cohesive, and developmentally thoughtful.
Students benefit from:
-
High academic standards in language arts, math, science, and social studies
-
Deep engagement with Torah, Hebrew, Jewish history, and values
-
Learning that builds both intellectual strength and moral grounding
-
A school day designed to support focus, joy, and long-term growth
Rather than dividing a child’s attention, the dual curriculum strengthens it by teaching students to think critically, make connections, and approach learning with curiosity and confidence. According to data from Prizmah, there are real, meaningful outcomes for students who have the opportunity to experience a dual curriculum at a Jewish school including:
Thinking & Study Skills
A dual curriculum supports critical thinking, organization, and study habits that prepare students for high school and beyond.
Community Connection
Jewish day school alumni are four times more likely to have a strong connection to their local communities and to Israel.
Literacy & Leadership
Students develop not only academic and Hebrew literacy but also leadership and lifelong engagement in Jewish life.
Jewish Identity
Alumni are more than twice as likely to feel Jewish identity is “very important” compared to peers who did not attend day school.
Curriculum By Grade
We believe transparency builds trust. Families are invited to explore our curriculum and see how learning progresses from year to year. Below you’ll find downloadable curriculum guides by grade, outlining both General Studies and Judaic Studies learning goals, content areas, and skill development.
