About | Tenafly Chabad Academy

הסיפור שלנו

בית הספר חב"ד טנפליי נוסד בשנת 1997 במטרה פשוטה לספק חינוך יהודי לכל ילדי האזור. עם שלוש כיתות בלבד, התפשט הסוד שיש בית ספר כל כך חם ואוהב, עם כישורים אקדמיים כה חזקים, עד שקבוצת הורים ביקשה עוד.

במהלך 20 השנים הבאות, בית הספר ליובאוויטש און דה פאליסיידס המשיך להתרחב ולפתוח את זרועותיו לאלו המחפשים את הייחודיות שהוא מציע. כיום, בית הספר מאכלס למעלה מ-300 תלמידים מגיל 3 חודשים ועד כיתה ח'. התוכניות שלנו כוללות מעון יום, גן חובה, בית ספר יסודי וחטיבת ביניים.

המשימה שלנו

המשימה שלנו היא להציע לכל תלמיד חינוך יוצא מן הכלל. אנו משיגים זאת באמצעות מודלים חינוכיים מתקדמים וחדשניים המותאמים אישית לצרכיו של כל תלמיד ומבוססים על סביבה חמה ומטפחת המטמיעה ערכים יהודיים וצמיחה אישית.
