Solomon Schechter School

Schechter Manhattan is a Jewish elementary and middle school passionately dedicated to nurturing active learning and menschlichkeit as the primary means of cultivating each child's development - mind, hands, soul, and heart. The theory of action at the core of our educational program is that each learner’s mind, hands, soul, and heart are intricately intertwined. Only when all four are intentionally cultivated together will a child reach his or her full potential as a learner and a mensch - a sensitive, aware, reflective, respectful, and collaborative person.
