Knowledge > Overview

"The knowledge material on effective Boards and Board/Head relationships has been of great value. I shared a great deal of this information with my Board Chair, and we distributed many articles in our effort to lay the foundation for strengthening our Board's operation. In fact, we will be giving each Board member a self-evaluation form at our upcoming Board meeting." Jill Kessler, Head of School, Pardes Jewish Day School, AZ

As an organization dedicated to strengthening the Jewish day school movement, PEJE seeks to leverage the important role that knowledge plays in supporting the field. This section is designed to deliver usable resources, tools, case studies, and best practices in areas that are key for day school growth. Please note that these resources come from many sources. PEJE encourages you to browse and select tools that will help your school, but PEJE does not specifically endorse any one approach unless indicated.

Case studies and tools from Jewish day schools across the U.S. and Canada are included, because we know that knowledge stems from real experience.
