Abstract:
The author describes how the Coalition for the Advancement of Jewish Education (CAJE)
works to address a looming personnel crisis in the field of Jewish education. She explores the impact of one such response - DeLeT: Day School Leadership Through Teaching, a career-launch fellowship program for day school teachers. She concludes that DeLeT has opened the door to a passionate career in Jewish day school teaching and leadership for many Gen X and Gen Y Jewish adults.
