Our Philosophy

Charlotte Jewish Day School is committed to providing a nurturing and stimulating environment. We support individuality through small class sizes and a curriculum that is designed to accommodate different modes of learning.

Small student-teacher ratios allow our faculty and administration to closely gauge academic, social, and creative development. And with an eye on the individual student, we can see opportunities for growth even at the earliest stages.

Our educational philosophy is based on the All Kinds of Minds methodology. All CJDS teachers are trained in this evaluation and “attunement” principles:

• Team projects strengthen peer relations and problem-solving skills
• Risk-taking is encouraged for building confidence and self-esteem
• Teachers focus on the connections between assignments and life experiences
