She needs a unique school.
We built one.
Many young girls face social, emotional, or academic challenges that make it difficult for them to succeed in a mainstream school setting. These girls need additional support, yet the infrastructure of a traditional school system cannot accommodate them, and they fall through the cracks.
To fill this void, Bnos Peninim was born.
About Us
Education with a new school of thought
Bnos Peninim is a unique institution that provides a conventional school environment with extra guidance for girls struggling to keep up.
We create a typical classroom environment with uniforms, teachers, and desks while providing individual attention to each student.
Our goal at Bnos Peninim is to provide a supportive and loving middlestream™ environment where girls can grow to fulfill their potential. We are passionate about helping each girl succeed and to give them the tools they need to transition into a mainstream setting.
An environment
ripe for growth
Revolutionary Approach
At Bnos Peninim, we focus on the needs of the child as a whole. That means we not only strive to help them academically, but also to nurture healthy emotional and social development. Our programs are based on a holistic skill-based approach, which incorporates many proven methods into a single curriculum.
Passionate Staff
Collaboration. Adaptability. Creativity. Empathy. Patience. Our educators genuinely care about each student. They are personally invested in enabling students’ success and are constantly considering innovative, cutting-edge teaching methods to reach every child at their current skill level.
Measured Expectations
We constantly re-evaluate each child to ensure they are gaining and growing. As we reassess their abilities, expectations are raised accordingly.
On-Site Therapy
Students have easy access to whatever therapy they may need, be it OT, PT, SLP, and more. Our trained therapists are on-site and collaborate with both teacher's and parents to ensure that everyone is on the same page.
Constant Growth
Every minute is utilized to move the child forward and ensure they are making progress. Whether in the classroom, during recess, or at lunch, we strive to make the most of each moment and turn it into a learning experience.
Inspiring Passion
Instilling a profound, enduring connection to Torah and mitzvos inspires our girls and drives their every move. Our students forge a deep connection to Yiddishkeit. Everything, from davening to learning about the parsha, Yomim Tovim, and halacha, is filled with joy, meaning, and purpose.
Instilling Confidence
Developing peer relationships is vital to each girl’s self-esteem and emotional growth. The girls experience real friendship and camaraderie in a supportive environment while simultaneously learning a range of critical social-emotional skills such as empathy, cooperation, negotiation, and problem-solving strategies.
Inviting Responsibility
Accountability is crucial when building a child’s self-confidence. At Bnos Peninim, the girls practice independent skills and self-control, and they garner responsibility for the tasks they are capable of doing on their own. Practical life skills encourage independence, promote healthy development and foster confidence.
Improving Comprehension
With a cross-disciplinary approach and differentiated learning instruction, our professional staff ensure that the skills our students acquire are generalized, enabling them to become successful and independent problem solvers in the real-world.
Increasing Diligence
Classes take place in a conventional setting, with an emphasis on interaction, intrinsic motivation, engagement, and perseverance. Our creative teachers bring the material to life and make it relatable to enhance student interest, comprehension, and retention of information.
Implementing Skills
We have a daily lesson that intentionally integrates multiple academic methods simultaneously to enhance the learning experience. Process and product-oriented multi-sensory learning reinforces the girls’ knowledge, skills, and understanding while motivating them to learn through exciting, interconnected topics.
