Tuition is costly, but wait until you hear how much it costs to run a Jewish school. Rafi Eis ran a Jewish High School in Philadelphia and gives us a real glimpse into how much it really costs to operate a school. Even with super high tuition fees that almost no family can afford, the school ran a huge deficit.

Rafi Eis has spent many years in the education world, and gives us some practical ideas on how schools can radically slash their expenses on one hand, without sacrificing the quality of education on the other.

Yeshivat He'Atid in Teaneck was started in 2012 with a promise to charge a fair tuition and operate a lower cost school - and they actually do it. Their tuition is less than half of other schools in the area. Rabbi Tomer Ronen and Effie Billauer share their unique approach to this highly charged subject, and how it works out surprisingly well. 

Our Headlines show about the topic of tuition struck a raw nerve with many parents - and they shared their strong emotions with me. I voice their concerns and what schools need to do to change the nature of the relationship between parents and their school.

Also a replay of the Headlines interview with Rabbi Zev Cohen, Rav of Adas Yeshurun Chicago on the halachos and hashkafos of school tuition.

With Rabbi A.D. Motzen, National Director of State Relations for Agudas Yisrael.

On June 30 the Supreme Court issued a ruling regarding a case in Montana that affects how government funding of religious schools should be considered.

The Agudah followed this case closely as it has a very big impact on if yeshivas and day schools are eligible for receiving the same programs that are offered to secular private schools.

We also go in-depth about the prospects for voucher programs - are we ever going to see a voucher program in the NY area - and how organizations like Agudah and others are getting results in the halls of government.

At the start of the virus, Rabbi Yitzi Ross, a rebbe in Yeshiva of South Shore, started a voluntary Zoom shiur for his class. It quickly spread to friends, neighbors, and friends of friends, and now he has thousands of children logging in every afternoon.

Rabbi Ross shares his story and his passion for teaching Torah - which is something we can all learn from.

Every week he gives the kids a test and raffles off thousands of dollars in Amazon gift cards - keeping the kids motivated and engaged.

The shiur - which is open to any elementary school talmid - will continue through the summer (and beyond!). 

Register for the shiur and help Rabbi Ross sponsor prizes at studyingnavi.com.

He also runs an organization to help kids in discreet and unique ways, and you can help out at mjya.org.
