Jewish Life and Culture

The Addlestone Hebrew Academy, unaffiliated with any single movement or synagogue, partners with the entire Charleston Jewish community. We see as essential the creation of a community with families from across the spectrum of the Jewish community. We regard the texts of the Jewish tradition and the history of the Jewish people as fundamental resources for developing ideas, beliefs, and values to shape and inspire our students and families.
