Last year Bais Rivkah hosted our first-ever Chinuch Tank, where our teachers were invited to share their innovative proposals on how to improve the chinuch in our school. Our teachers submitted over 30 brilliant ideas pertaining to curriculum, technological improvements, social and emotional development, and more.
Of the five finalists who were selected by our independent panel of judges, a live audience at the Embrace Live alumnae event voted for our winner: Mrs. Ella Lerman’s new app that will connect teenagers with vetted mentors on an anonymous platform. This platform will fill a tremendous void for our girls through a medium that is most comfortable for them. This platform has been in the works for the past year and according to developer Moshe Shemtov, we are close to our beta testing stage.
After the incredible response we received last year, we have expanded the tank! We now invite any and all women in our community (local and otherwise) to dive into Bais Rivkah’s second annual Chinuch Tank.
There is only one week left to dive into the Chinuch Tank for a chance to win $1,000 prize and 25k to implement your idea in Bais Rivkah!
