Jewish values which may
threaten the child's
loyalties to them. Such
parents can and do react
with ill-concealed
resistance or hostility to
the child’s school-fostered
Jewish commitment. Rab
bi Malberstam contended
there were ways to deal
with that problem
As a result of such
parental decisions on their
children’s school, the pop
ulation of Hebrew day
schools throughout the
country includes children
from families of Conser
vative, Reform and non-
affiliated backgrounds, as
well as from mainly
Orthodox homes, RAbbi
Halberstam noted The
child from a non-observant
home, "in spite of the fact
that there are many
children in the school with
similar background, is fac
ed with a socially awkward
and personally threatening
situation The standards
and mores taught at home
appear by comparison to
those taught in school to
be lax and inadequate"
What such a child gets in a
Hebrew day school is “an
entirely new way of life
with different goals and
new purposes,'' a lifestyle
which may be as upsetting
to him as it may be to his
parents.
RAbbi Halberstam told
the JTA he did not have
statistics on the number of
such children among the
approximately SO, 000
pupils in the nation's
Hebrew day schools.
However, Dr Joseph
Kaminetsky, Torah
Umesorah's national
director, offered the JTA
an estimate that of the ap
proximately 54,000 pupils
in Hebrew day schools in
the New York area,
between JO and 40 percent
were from non-observant
homes, or at least from
homes substantially less
observant than the stan
dards of the Hebrew day
school — between 15,(MX)
and 20.0(H) children.
Rabbi Halberstam
stressed, in his report, that
"the crisis the child laces is
not due to any weakness in
the curriculum or lack of
pedagogic methodology on
the part of the teacher but
to the basic goals inherent
in real Jewish education
and the successful
transmission of these
goals." He contended, in
fact, that in schools with
such children where the
problem did not exist.

ly isolated from the rest of the
world. The screen play by Irving

Summer” and "Hud,” is based on
