The Elementary MAT Day School Leadership through Teaching (DELET) Program is a degree program that opens a door to day school teaching. DeLeT prepares recent college graduates and career changers to teach in the elementary grades in Jewish day schools.

  • Close integration of courses and fieldwork
  • Help in getting placed as a teacher in a Jewish Day School
