There are a number of Jewish Educational institutions in Vienna. Zvi Perez Chajes School is the Jewish school of Vienna and is run by the community. It reopened in 1984 after being closed for more than 50 years. In 1986 the Ronald S. Lauder-Foundation established the Bet-Chabad-Schule. Approximately 400 students receive Jewish religious instruction in general schools and two additional Talmud Torah schools. The ultra-Orthodox community has its own educational system and separate schools. Various other educational institutions have developed in recent decades. In February 2004, The Viennese Yeshiva, the first yeshiva built since World War II was inaugurated.<\/p>\n
Zvi Perez Chajes School<\/strong> Founded as a “Jewish Private Gymnasium” and named after Chief Rabbi Zvi Perez Chajes in 1919, it was mainly attended by pupils with a Galician background (a former province of Austria-Hungary Monarchy, today Galicia is split between Ukraine and Poland). Modeled on the principles of its name-giver, the school tried to harmonize assimilation and orthodoxy. Leaning towards Zionism, it strived to combine Jewish Nationalism with a humanistic education; a Jewish cultural identity matched with loyalty to society. The school was closed down in 1941, after it was used by the Gestapo to assemble Viennese Jews prior to their deportation. It was reopened in Castellezgasse in September 1984. About 80 children attend pre-school and Kindergarten, 140 primary school and about 140 the “Gymnasium”. Hebrew is taught as the first foreign language.<\/p>\n The Lauder Chabad School and Kindergarten<\/strong> Approximately 200 children who come for nursery school, kindergarten, secondary school and various computer courses or for afternoon supervision attend the school. Found in 1986 by the Chabad Movement and financially supported by the Ronald S. Lauder Foundation, the school aims to ensure that the children of immigrants from the former Soviet Union were integrated at school and in society and that they have learned the language. Its curriculum aims primarily at preparing students for vocational training schools and skilled trades.<\/p>\n Talmud Torah Elementary and Junior High School “Machzike Hadass”<\/strong> In this school, which is over 150 years old, boys and girls are taught separately. The school prepares male students to attend yeshiva and female students to attend the Bet Yakov School. The school is recognized by the state, with tuition available for all age groups. Classes are segregated according to gender. The school offers a kindergarten, elementary and secondary school for boys and girls; a cheder and Talmud Torah for boys; secretarial training (9th and 10th level) for girls.<\/p>\n Talmud Torah-School of “Agudas Israel”<\/strong> The school offers afternoon classes for further religious education for children from Orthodox families.<\/p>\n Talmud Thora-School “Sinai”<\/strong> Religious Education at Public School<\/strong><\/p>\n Any Jewish student registered in the community may attend. The decision not to attend religious classes must be communicated to the public school within the first school weeks of the year. Adults may review the curriculum, which is available at the administrative offices of the community. Complementing the religious education, the community sponsors holiday events and youth services.<\/p>\n 1 – 11 Grade: Zvi Perez Chajes-School 1010 Vienna, Seitenstettengasse 4<\/p>\n Lyc\u00e9e Francais de Vienne The Viennese Yeshiva<\/strong> Vienna Academy of Higher Rabbinical Studies<\/strong> Jewish Pedagogical Center<\/strong> J\u00fcdisches Berufliches Bildungszentrum \u2013 JBBZ<\/strong> The JBBZ offers all young adults who have completed 9th grade the opportunity of training in various professions.
