Be there at the Orthodox Union’s (OU) National Conference between
April 25 and 26. Come and know about online education, a cost-saving
program.
The national conference on online education is being presented by the
Orthodox Union’s Department of Day School and Educational Services.
Entitled as “Online Education and Online Charter Schools Within Your Day
School: Approaches Toward Excellence in Education and Reduced Costs”,
this comprehensive conference is being held from Sunday to Monday at the
Embassy Suites Dulles Airport Hotel in Herndon, Virginia. The second
venue of the conference between the same dates is at the nearby K12
corporate headquarters.
Among the invitees in this grand initiative in online education are
principals of different schools, curriculum specialists, presidents and
all the board members of yeshivas and day schools from across North
America. The details of K12 online charter schools will be completely
explained in this bold initiative to the educators who are always in
search of some cost-cutting techniques apart from also reducing the the
astronomical sums of yeshiva and day school tuition.
The main events in the conference are seminars and discussions, K12
facilities site visit, and also a brief tour of Washington, DC. The
seminars and discussions will be led by intelligentsia and experts of
the fields.
The conference coordinator of this bold initiative is Rabbi Saul
Zucker, the Director of the Department of Day School and Educational
Services of OU. He is having a twenty-two years of educational
administrative experience.
President of OU, Stephen J. Savitsky, declared: “No one program can
solve the tuition crisis. But at the Orthodox Union, we believe we have a
responsibility to seek out and bring alternatives to the leadership of
yeshivot and day schools that might possibly make Jewish education more
affordable. By attending this seminar, educators can see for themselves
what the program is and they can decide if they want to pursue it. We
will continue to explore additional alternatives that will allow yeshiva
education to be more affordable.”
