Just found out there’s a yeshiva in LA that’s doing what YM has been doing for the last two years: homeschooling in the afternoon, but starting each day with a full limudei kodesh (Jewish studies, including gemara) curriculum in a real yeshiva setting.
More details (full press release) here.
I’m so relieved to see that I’m not crazy: the stated goals of this yeshiva are to make Jewish education affordable, while tailoring the general-studies curriculum to fit each boy individually.
Why doesn’t every city have something like this?!?!???
