In response to the request for samples of standards for high school Jewish Studies.
The Lookstein Center has led many different curriculum projects in partnership with schools throughout the world. In some we have partnerships with leading Jewish organizations like PaJes (Partnerships for Jewish Education in Schools based in the UK) in which tens of schools are using Chumash curriculum written in collaboration with the Lookstein Center and in others we work with individual schools based on their ideal graduate and school ethos.
Two samples of work on Tanach and Gemara standards that the Lookstein Center did with individual schools in curriculum projects have been uploaded to our website. I would like to emphasize that they were written with particular school ethos and goals in mind based on the school's ideal graduate together with a specified number of hours of instruction per week. No one size fits all schools.

Although these are small samples of much bigger projects I hope they will be helpful to get a sense of the structure and overall content of such a syllabus.
