'EMS, Bnai Moshe Sign Agreement;
Board Functions Decentralized
For- the fourth time since
1952, the Unite d Hebrew
S c h o o l s and Cong. Bnai
Moshe have entered into a
partnership relationship by
which the UHS utilize the
synagogue premises as a
branch of the communal
school system.
However, the new five-year
agreement, u n l i k e earlier
agreements, will reflect the
decentralization of the func-
tions of the UHS board with
the idea of developing some
degree of autonomy within
the local school.
A joint board, consisting
of Bnai Moshe representa-
tives and UHS representa-
tives, will be responsible for
the administration of the
school and will serve as a
policy-making body within
the framework of the UHS.
According to a UHS state-
ment, "the new attitude and
philosophical approach rep-
resented by this agreement
will enable both the syna-
gogue and the UHS to meet
each other's needs and serve
the community more effec-
tively."
The UHS entered into a
cooperative agreement with
Bnai Moshe in 1952 when its
building was at Dexter and
Lawrence Ayes. The relation-
ship continued with Bnai
Moshe's move to Oak Park.
The first congregation to
establish such a partnership
with UHS was Cong. Adat
Shalom, in 1950. Since then,
a similar arrangement has
been made also with Beth
Achim and Temple Emanu-
El.
An original purpose of the
agreement was to eliminate
the overlapping of synagogue
and community-o per at e d

schools, which often were lo-
cated in the same neighbor-
hood. The cooperative ar-
rangement, whereby syna-
gogue facilities were leased
to the UHS, thus saved funds
by eliminating building costs
and reducing overhead.
To create a closer relation-
ship between the synagogues
and the UHS, members of the
synagogue boards are invited
to serve on the UHS board
of directors and its various
committees.
The UHS provides person-
nel and assumes the respon-
sibility of maintaining the
branch. It also cooperates
with the synagogue in con-
ducting the junior congrega-
tion, and celebrating holiday
observances, se t t i n g Bar
