Growing numbers
of families were looking to send their children to Torah
schools. Many had taken the first tentative steps towards
a religious way of life and were looking for schools that
incorporated religious subjects into their curriculum.
Others had no interest in religion, but looked to religious
schools as an alternative to violence-ridden secular schools.
More often than not, however, these parents were unable
to find a suitable school for their children. Many of
these families live in secular neighborhoods where no
Torah schools exist. Even in cases where Torah schools
are situated nearby, these schools often are not equipped
to deal with the unique needs of children from such backgrounds.
A new school system had to be established that would meet
these children’s needs- and that was why the Gedolei
Torah, led by Rav Aharon Leib Steinman and the Gerrer
Rebbe, brought Keren Nesivos Moshe into being.

Curriculum – The Keren’s schools are attractive to nonobservant families because they offer a level of education that far surpasses that of the public school system. At the same time, the schools offer a Torah education that meets the children’s – and their families’- unique needs. It introduces Torah concepts on a gradual basis, enabling the children to integrate them naturally.
Devoted Teachers – The Keren’s teachers do more than just teach – they help students and their families successfully make the transition into a religious way of life. They are teachers, social workers, child psychologists and outreach professionals all rolled into one.
