With antisemitism at an alarming rate in schools, teachers and administrators urgently need more support to foster understanding and awareness.
The Student to Student program, led by the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia’s Jewish Community Relations Council, works to build bridges, demystify Judaism and combat antisemitism through peer-to-peer learning over the course of the school year.
By empowering Jewish teens to share their lived experiences in a classroom or smaller group setting, the program fosters authentic connection and sparks dialogue to break down stereotypes and bias.
Topics Include
- The Jewish Life Cycle
- Hebrew Language
- Jewish Holidays
- Jewish Dietary Practices
- Antisemitism and the Holocaust
- Connections to Israel
- The Sabbath
