Last week, Cohort 23 got to visit four of our partner schools in action - Emek Hebrew Academy Teichman Family Torah Center, Heschel, Brawerman Elementary School and Pressman Academy! We loved having our current residents show us around and got to see so many of our alumni who work at each school. Our school visits are always a highlight of the DeLeT year, and we thank all of our school partners for graciously welcoming us to your campuses!

Yesterday, as part of Cohort 23's Day School and Society course, our current DeLeT residents met in the Bay Area to visit one of our partner schools, Contra Costa Jewish Day School, where they got to see one of their peers in action and learn more about their school culture. After a wonderful morning in Lafayette, the group got to observe and tour OHDS in Oakland - thank you for hosting our first DeLeT visit! We can't wait to visit our Los Angeles partner schools next week - Heschel Day School, Emek Hebrew Academy Teichman Family Torah Center, Brawerman Elementary School and Pressman Academy!
