The school system
History:
The school, which was established 10 years ago with 14 girls in first grade, has grown to over 400 students today.
The quality preschool system provides the basis for potential students in the schools. The children who attend come from various backgrounds. Parents, who are interested in dedicated, personal, high standard education in a Jewish and Chassidic atmosphere, continue to send their children to our schools.
Standard of learning
Our schools provide a high level of education to the students. We compete with other schools in the city for their high standards. The classrooms are smaller than in other schools in order to provide more individualized attention to each pupil. The elementary, intermediate, high schools and Yeshiva keep up with and surpass the levels of other private schools. The high school and Yeshiva take the government accredited exams.
Chassidic social atmosphere
A strong chassidic emphasis in the schools allow the children to taste and enjoy the special atmosphere of Chai. This is achieved by programs and activities which the students in the upper classes help organize and run.
We will be happy to provide you with more information.
Ready for School
Chai emphasizes preparing children for first grade. The children learn letters reading, writing and thinking skills during their pre1a class. This way they come prepared for school. Indeed children who learned in the Chai preschools are sought after by many schools.
As a preparation for first grade the children spent a day in school where the first grade teacher prepared an interactive program for them. They were introduced to a school and classroom structure. Each child received a preparation for school booklet and a gift.
The children were happy to meet their friends from kindergarten who were now in school. The visit to school with their kindergarten teachers helps alleviate the anxiety many children have from school and helps boost their self confidence in the first days at school.
New Equipment for the Science Laboratories
Thanks to a donation from the Shoresh Foundation, Chai Ashkelon was able to purchase desperately needed equipment for our science laboratories. The addition of this equipment will help the children with their matriculation exams. Last year alone over 95% of our children finished with some of the highest scores in the country! Our heartfelt thanks to the Shoresh Foundation for helping our children secure a brighter future through good education
