HCSC will accomplish its pioneering mission by supporting a network of excellent schools that serve diverse populations of students, foster strong interpersonal relationships, advance overall academic and social/emotional well-being, and promote high-levels of Hebrew language proficiency and understanding of world Jewish communities and Israel.
HSCS will be a key resource for planning groups interested in developing Hebrew language charter schools and a source of continuing support and expertise for those schools once they are established.
