With the return of the 20 remaining living hostages, the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, and the move towards a lasting peace and rebuilding of the Gaza Strip, the two years of war have entered into a new era.
For two years, Jewish educators have been living in real time what it means to teach a changed Jewish people against the backdrop of war, antisemitism, and the ongoing hostage crisis.
Now, with the arrival of the proverbial October 8, we are living in the intersection of hope and complexity. At once, educators may be holding the happiness of the return of the living hostages, ongoing sadness about the 19 remaining in captivity, questions about responsibility, healing, and our own roles.
Educators are once again on the front lines of making meaning for our learners and communities, and in order to do our work as well as care for ourselves, we invite you to reflect, unpack, and process with our community of colleagues.
Join The Jewish Education Project in conversation with Dr. Betsy Stone to explore what it means to be a Jewish educator on October 8. In this healing space, we will reflect on the new stage of our world and our work, and will support one another in our shared next steps.
