Jewish education we will be able
to enlist the participation of par-
ents in the evolvement of cur-
ricula and in self-education
which will help to bridge the
gap between school and home.
"It is my feeling that we have
not been successful in creating
a unified Jewish education sys-
tem because the different schools
fear loss of autonomy. Some
types of schools have a long tra-
dition of ideological concepts.
These have to be respected and
their proponents assured that
autonomy will not be lost through
unification.
"Hebrew and Yiddish teachers
getting together to discuss corn-
mon problems would automati-
cally make for mutual under-
standing and appreciation of
each others objectives. Eventu-
ally Jewish education is the loser
when the community gets the
impression that one school is in
competition with the other."
