Leo Baeck Education Center

The mission of the Leo Baeck Education Center is to build a pluralistic society in the spirit of progressive Judaism, Zionism, democracy, and shared responsibility. Through excellent formal and informal education and a deep commitment to Tikkun Olam (repair of the world), mutual support and equal opportunity, we empower individuals of all ages and walks of life to fulfill their potential and become agents of social change. We are committed to the pursuit of academic excellence, to strengthening ties with Jewish communities throughout the world, to teaching love of Israel in the spirit of the Jewish State’s founding vision, and to striving for the practical implementation of that vision educationally and socially.
Rabbi Dr. Leo Baeck
Located in Haifa, we are an education-community platform that inspires Israelis to live their lives committed to liberal, pluralistic Judaism, Tikkun Olam/social justice and to Israel being a shared equal society for all its citizens. Based in Haifa, we provide 2,300 children from pre-school to year 12 with a first-class education infused with the highest universal, Jewish values. Our schools, alongside our Congregation Ohel Avraham Progressive synagogue and our community center, all impact annually on thousands of families of all faiths and identities - Jews, Christians, Muslims, Druze and Baha’i.
