Melton's curriculum is inspired... Our teachers helped us to infuse all that we learned with contemporary meaning from our own experiences, as well as from interpretations offered by the various branches of Judaism, from Ultra Orthodox to Classical Reform. On a personal note, I found that by the end of the semester, during which we studied Classical Rabbinics, my initial - almost hostile - cynicism had been transformed into a healthy skepticism tempered with a core of admiration and respect for these great teachers who helped to shape and preserve our religion.

Rabbi Angela Buchdahl

Central Synagogue, New York City
Melton has been transformative for our adult learning community, drawing on an entirely new group of adult students and transforming them into lifelong learners. We have found that engagement with Melton has also translated to greater engagement in Jewish life as well.

Rabbi David Glickman

Congregation Beth Shalom in Overland Park, KS
I can speak from my personal experience… that shuls benefit from this partnership as well. Much of our community’s synagogue and Federation leadership are Melton alumni, and our shul’s alumni have been catalysts for us to continually improve our adult education offerings.

Rabbi David Woznica

Stephen Wise Temple, Los Angeles, CA
If you care about the future of American Jewish life, if you care that Jews are educated and fall in love with Judaism, you’ll care about having a successful, passionate, thriving Florence Melton School.
