Our Philosophy

At Kinneret, we believe in an excellent secular and Jewish education in a supportive environment that enables students to see themselves as creators in our world and as active participants in tikkun olam.  Our teachers aim to nurture students’ individuality, allowing them to find their strengths and develop at their own paces while growing in their love of Israel, expanding their knowledge of the secular world and all it has to offer, and learning about themselves and their own promise for the future.  We value traditional learning styles integrated with new technologies, and we believe in every child’s ability not only to learn from one another but to be teachers to each other and to the world.  Our philosophy of empowerment through education is visible in everything we do, and the confident, capable, well-rounded, well-loved students who graduate from Kinneret carry that strength of character with them to high school, college, and beyond.
