City-Wide Program Initiated
For Jewish Education Month,
With 17 Groups Participating
Responding to the call of the
United Hebrew Schools to initi-
ate a joint sponsoring committee
for Jewish Education Month
this year, 17 organizations were
represented at a meeting held
Oct. 11 at the Rose Sittig Cohen
Building. Lawrence W. Crohn
presided.
It was unanimously agreed
that a joint sponsorship by all
educational organizations and
other organizations interested in
Jewish Education would result
in a more effective program for
Jewish Education Month, thus
reaching more people with the
education message and avoiding
duplication.
Although Education Month
was initiated by the • United
Hebrew Schools 25 years ago
• and was sponsored by the He-
brew Schools each year, this
year marks the first joint
community-wide effort de-
signed to stimulate interest in
Jewish education.
The joint sponsoring commit-
tee approved the issuance of a
city-wide call to all parents to
give their children a Jewish edu-
cation.
The various organizations par-
ticipating in this program are
asked to devote a special meet-
ing of each chapter on the ,sub-
ject of Jewish education. A
city-wide meeting on Jewish
education will also be held.
