Emet Classical Academy, a new Jewish school in Manhattan established by the Tikvah Fund, is set to open with nearly 40 students in its inaugural year, following significant interest from families concerned about rising antisemitism and progressive educational values. The school promotes a classical education model, emphasizing Greek and Latin studies, and aims to distance itself from contemporary pedagogical trends. Initially, Emet intended to start with only a small sixth grade but expanded to include fifth, sixth, and ninth grades due to overwhelming demand, with projections to triple enrollment to 250 students by 2027. This initiative reflects a broader trend of classical education gaining traction in Jewish communities, driven by parental dissatisfaction with public education systems. Concurrently, the Yael Foundation has launched a leadership program for principals of Jewish schools globally to enhance educational standards amid increased interest following recent antisemitic incidents. Both developments highlight the growing preference for Jewish education as a response to societal challenges.
