| | Manuscript Collection | Requires cookie* | | 2 | Title: | Cleveland Hebrew Schools Records
| | | | Creator: | Cleveland Hebrew Schools | | | | Dates: | 1908-1975 | | | | Abstract: | The Cleveland Hebrew Schools evolved from the Montefiore Free Hebrew School (later called the Talmud Torah) established in Cleveland, Ohio, ca. 1885. In 1905, another communal Hebrew school was founded by Joshua Flock and Aaron Garber. In 1907, the two schools combined, the name remaining the Talmud Torah. In 1913, the Talmud Torah received an Ohio charter and changed its name to the Cleveland Hebrew School and Institute, enrolling students in grades one through eight. Abraham Hayyim Friedland, an internationally known educator, headed the school from 1921-1939. In 1926, a high school was added, and a Parent Council was organized in 1930. Bernard Levitin served as superintendent from 1944-1970, a period of movement of Cleveland's Jewish population to the suburbs. A reorganization of the Cleveland Hebrew Schools took place during this period, with some Cleveland branches closing and new suburban schools opening. As the number of Jewish day schools and congregational classes grew, the Cleveland Hebrew Schools enrollment dropped and branches were further consolidated. In 1955, the Parent Council organized Camp Oneg, a Hebrew summer day camp, and Ganon Gil Nursery, a Hebrew school for preschool children. In 1967 Cleveland Hebrew High School merged into Akiva High School. The collection consists of staff, enrollment, and financial records, correspondence, board of trustees minutes, legal documents, newspaper clippings, monthly and annual reports, school publications, posters, and scrapbooks. | | | | Call #: | MS 4620 | | | | Extent: | 6.30 linear feet (8 containers and 1 oversize folder) | | | | Subjects: | Cleveland Hebrew Schools. | Jews -- Education -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Jewish educators -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Schools -- Ohio -- Cleveland.

| | | | Creator: | Educational League | | | | Dates: | 1897-1966 | | | | Abstract: | The Educational League was initiated by members of B'nai B'rith, Baron de Hirsch Lodge of Cleveland, Ohio, in 1897, as an independent organization whose mission was to provide Jewish orphans with financial aid for higher education. Based in Cleveland and chartered in the State of Ohio, the League's operation covered twenty states in the central United States. Presidents of the League included Martin A. Marks, Dr. Samuel Wolfenstein, Rabbi Moses Gries, and Albert A. Benesch. It's original mission soon expanded to include any Jewish student in need. Money advanced was to be a repayable loan, rather than a grant. Beginning in the late 1920s, the League concentrated exclusively on assisting students from the Cleveland area, or out-ot-town students attending Cleveland area schools. Around the same time, the League joined with the Jewish Welfare Federation of Cleveland and the Cleveland Section, National Council of Jewish Women to coordinate the review and approval of loans. This alliance was known as the Joint Conference on Educational Fund Loans (ca. 1930-1945), and as the Joint Educational Loan Committee thereafter. The collection consists of correspondence, minutes, reports, and beneficiary files. The beneficiary files are arranged alphabetically by last name of beneficiary. | | | | Call #: | MS 4667 | | | | Extent: | 4.00 linear feet (6 containers) | | | | Subjects: | Educational League (Cleveland, Ohio). | Jewish Community Federation (Cleveland, Ohio) | National Council of Jewish Women.

In 1901, several congregations joined the Council of Jewish Women in funding the school, and in 1918 high school classes were established.

| Manuscript Collection | Requires cookie* | | 19 | Title: | Cleveland Jewish History Sources, Series II
| | | | Creator: | Herman, Shoshana | | | | Dates: | 1953-1958 | | | | Abstract: | Cleveland Jewish History Sources, Series II includes materials related to the support of a planned volume on the history of Cleveland, Ohio, Jewry. The research for that volume was conducted between 1954 and 1956 and was supported by the American Jewish History Center (AJHC) of the Jewish Theological Seminary of America. The planned volume materialized in 1978 with the publication of Lloyd P. Gartner's History of the Jews of Cleveland (Cleveland: Western Reserve Historical Society and Jewish Community Federation of Cleveland, 1978, 1987). MS. 4621, Cleveland Jewish History Sources consists of over 16,000 index cards containing information about Cleveland's Jewish community obtained primarily from newspapers. These cards have been arranged into fourteen broad categories: Arts; Charities; Clubs and Societies, Various; Community Services; Economic Life; Education; Political Affairs; Population; Sermons and Lectures; Social Life; Synagogues; Synagogue Related; Umbrella Organizations, and Zionism. Sources for this information, which cover the span from the early nineteenth century to the middle of the twentieth, were researched by one team at the AJHC in New York City and another in Cleveland. AJHC researchers culled Cleveland related information from the national Anglo Jewish press; Cleveland researchers Jack Herman (Rabbi, Community Temple) and Judah Rubinstein (subsequently, Research Director, Cleveland Jewish Federation), extracted information from local sources, including the general press, the Anglo Jewish press and Jewish communal records. While MS 4621, Cleveland Jewish History Sources functions as a partial index to the local Jewish press, MS 5111, Cleveland Jewish History Sources Collection, Series II includes background materials for the planned publication project such as correspondence and interviews. In addition, the unpublished papers on aspects of Cleveland Jewish history offer the researcher different perspectives and ideas for other sources. | | | | Call #: | MS 5111 | | | | Extent: | 0.20 linear feet (1 container) | | | | Subjects: | Fischer, Mabel. | Benesch, Alfred A.

| | | | Creator: | Numbers 2000 | | | | Dates: | 1995-1997 | | | | Abstract: | Numbers 2000 was a Jewish family history project created by Melitz, a Jewish-Zionist educational organization in Israel. The Jewish Education Center of Cleveland (JECC) implemented the program in the Cleveland, Ohio, area in 1993. Numbers 2000 was initially implemented in five congregational schools, and then grew to eight schools the following year. The program was designed to interest students in their Jewish heritage both in and out of the classroom. Projects included finding old family photographs and documents, interviewing relatives, and developing family trees. For one project, students brought a photograph, document, or heirloom to the Western Reserve Historical Society to be photographed. These photographs were developed into slides, with the intention that the slides would become an educational resource for future generations of Cleveland Jews. The collection consists of a slide catalogue, permission slips, and slide document information sheets, which describe the item each child brought to the Western Reserve Historical Society to be photographed. The congregational schools represented in this collection are Bethaynu, B'nai Jeshurun, Fairmount Temple, Park Synagogue, Solomon Schechter Day School, and Temple Emanu El. | | | | Call #: | MS 5121 | | | | Extent: | 0.20 linear feet (1 container) | | | | Subjects: | Jewish Education Center of Cleveland. | Jews -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Genealogy. | Jews -- Education -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Jewish day schools -- Study and teaching (Secondary) -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Education -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Jewish families -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- History. | Genealogy -- Study and teaching (Secondary) | Cleveland (Ohio) -- Genealogy.
