Duane Said:

question on jewish vocational eduaction?

We Answered:

Educational institutions for Jewish people were started in the US for certain reasons:

A) At the beginning of this century, like African Americans, Jews were subjected to 'quotas' and barred from many institutions (Harvard for example was a classic case of this). In lieu of what was going on, the Jewish community created schools in order to educate their children as a result.

B) Judaism doesn't proselytize as a general rule of thumb: It's not right to try to impose our religious beliefs on those who aren't Jewish, nor is it appropriate to do so. As such, private schools are a means of allowing Jewish children to get a religious education along with a secular one. You will see the same thing within Christianity and Islam.

C) Chassidim tends to stay the course of traditional Judaism: This means that Torah instruction is a very important aspect in one's life. Modern Orthodoxy however, focuses on a very strong secular component to education as well.
