Welfare Board and the American
Association for Jewish Education
jointly issued a statement set-
ting forth nine specific recom-
mendations on "Jewish educa-
-tion for youth."
The recommendations, growing
out of a "Statement on Common
Objectives and Areas of Cooper-
ation in the Fields of Jewish
Education and Jewish Center
Work" adopted by the JWB and
the AAJE, were formulated by
a Joint Committee of both orga-
nizations, under the • chairman-
ship of Judge Samuel Mellitz of
Bridgeport, Conn.
Calling . for a greater number
of secondary schools of Jewish
education, recommendation 1
characterizes this activity as the
"primary responsibility" of the
central education agency but
adds that it should receive the
'active support" of JCCs.
Recommendation 2 calls on
Centers, with the cooperation of
the educational a g e n c i e s, to
"undertake to establish and con-
duct" extension classes for Jew-
ish students of high school age.
A "most significant develop-
ment," the statement notes,
is the effort under way in
several communities to intro-
duce Hebrew into the public
high school and college cur-
ricula, modeled after the pro-
gram now in operation in
New York City and elsewhere.
This effort, accordin g' to
recommendation 3, should re-
ceive "every encouragement by
all interested agencies."
While the variety of informal
Jewish education activities con-
ducted at JCCs are the primary
responsibility of the Centers,
recommendation 4 urges Jewish
educational agencies to encour-
age youth participation in Center
activities.
Recommendation 5, dealing
with the role of the Center in
the development of yolith
