A concerted effort to co-ordinate and standardize the work of religious schools attached to one hundred and forty synagogues in Greater New York will be made at a conference at the Commodore Hotel, on Sunday afternoon, December 14, called by the New York Branch of the United Synagogue of America. In addition to representatives of all of these synagogues, the conference will be attended by leading Jewish educations.
A survey of conditions in the schools will be presented. Plans will be offered for the founding of a permanent organization which will hold periodic meetings to discuss such problems as may arise in the development of the congregational schools, as well as the whole problem of Jewish education in New York. The proposed organization will work in cooperation with the Jewish Educational Association.
