<HTML>The following is the statement of philosophy of the Torah Academy of
Bergen County:
Predicated on Rambam's dual formulation of the first commandment to
believe that there is a G-d and to know that there is a G-d - Torah
Academy strives to promote a sense of profound loyalty to the unique
mesorah of Am Yisrael along with an appreciation of the wonder of the
world He created. Our Judaic studies curriculum explores both Torah
She-be`al Peh and Torah Shebikhtav, and seeks to encourage dedication to
the study of Torah and the observance of the letter and spirit of Mitzvot.
Our college preparatory studies include the sciences and humanities,
designed to enable each student to explore the universe and gain insight
into the human condition. The school recognizes the unique role of Medinat
Yisrael in Jewish history and its centrality in Jewish life, and is
committed to imbuing its students with that awareness. Torah Academy is
uniquely situated to develop a keen sensitivity and concern for all
humanity, particularly those in need of our assistance and understanding.
