Palo Alto School for Jewish Education
Jewish Sunday Studies - Our Mission
PASJE's mission is to nurture our children's Jewish identity through the study and celebration of Jewish history, culture, values, and language, and to create a Jewish community for our families.
We are...
The Palo Alto School for Jewish Education (PASJE) is an independent, non-profit Sunday school with classes from kindergarten through the eighth grade. Part of the Peninsula Jewish community for over 50 years, the school has helped create a positive sense of identity, culture, and heritage for hundreds of students and families. PASJE families represent the rich diversity of Jewish expression and identity. Our school seeks to provide an environment in which all children and parents are comfortable.
PASJE was founded by parents and continues to be run by a parent board. The school is not affiliated with a synagogue. All parents are encouraged to attend board meetings and participate in decision-making.
