Parents have expressed concern that public school materials on Jewish topics present limited or one-sided perspectives. The parents stated that current lessons fail to cover the full range of Jewish history, culture, and contributions.
Educators met in March 2026 at the Center for Jewish-Inclusive Learning to examine how Jewish topics are taught in humanities classes. The conference addressed both opportunities and challenges in presenting these subjects to students. Participants reviewed existing curriculum approaches and considered ways to expand coverage of Jewish life.
The event included sessions on classroom practices and resource development for teachers.
