About Us
Keren Or, meaning "ray of light," was founded in the Fall
of 2006 by two families with children who have unique differences
and educational requirements, but who all had a strong desire to attend
a Jewish high school.
There are several programs available in Atlanta for elementary and
middle school students. Until the Keren Or Jewish High School opened
its door in September 2006, a high school education in a Jewish day
school environment was not an option for Atlanta teens that learn
differently.
Located within The Weber School of Atlanta, this "school within
a school" provides a more focused, modified curriculum for students
with learning disabilities. The school focuses on the learning style
of each student while providing access to a wide range of social and
Judaic peer experiences.
Keren Or was born:
- From the desire of families and their teens to attend school
with their Jewish peers.
- So these Jewish high school students could have the same opportunity
as other Atlanta Jewish teens, to spend their critical high school
years in an environment fostering a sense of Jewish responsibility
and continuity.
- So these Jewish high school students could receive the individualized
education programs they need, in a community environment, in a
structure based on Jewish values.
