The Avi Chai Foundation is offering a grant for start-up costs for schools that are introducing the TaL AM curriculum of Hebrew language and Jewish heritage into their programs or extending their use of TaL AM in the 2010-2011 school year. This is a unique opportunity for schools that do not currently utilize TaL AM, but wish to adopt it, to get support for one-time cost for materials and teacher training.
It is also an opportunity for schools currently utilizing TaL AM in some grades to get support for adding an additional grade level and/or for training teachers who will be teaching on a grade level that they have not taught previously. For more information, contact the Tal Am by e-mail at anitai@talam.org.
Avi Chai is also offering generous support for participation of heads of school, assistant principals, Jewish Studies principals, and coordinators of Jewish Studies/Hebrew to participate in the TaL AM School Leadership Institute. Two options for participation in Leadership Institutes will be offered in the 2010-2011 school year, as follows:
December 12-15, 2010 in West Orange, New Jersey
July 10-13, 2011 in Jerusalem, Israel
Program fees, room, board, and up to $500 in airfare will be covered by the Avi Chai grant for both options. For more information, contact TaL AM at by e-mail at ednas@talam.org.
