For thirty years here at Priority-1, we have been fighting with every ounce of strength to address the various issues facing our educational system. From “at-risk” teenagers to ADULTS abandoning Yiddishkeit, we have seen it all, and our heart breaks with every new case that comes to our offices.
We have been in the trenches, innovating and implementing methods to reach the next generation, and we believe that the key is PREVENTION.
We started our Teach to Reach initiative to help educators and parents understand how dangerous the “one size fits all” attitude can be on children and to help children succeed in the classroom. Every child is his own world and we wanted to give teachers and parents the tools to give their children a passionate and lasting Yiddishkeit.
We never expected how successful our training program would become. Currently, we trained over 450+ teachers to reach their 6000+ students and held 9 citywide training events in the past two years.
But we can do more.
