Teach PA, a division of Teach Coalition, is the leading voice of yeshivas and Jewish day schools in Pennsylvania and has played a role in every nonpublic school funding development since 2012. Currently, 55% of Jewish day school students receive scholarships through the state’s tax credit program. Teach PA advances and strengthens Jewish day schools and communities by lobbying in Harrisburg and in local communities, facilitating grassroots activism in support of Jewish schools across regions and mobilizing nonpartisan voter outreach.
Join us as we fight for quality, affordable education for all students.

Hadassa Levenson
Regional Director, Teach PA
Hadassa Levenson
Hadassa Levenson Korn has built her career in education, serving as a public school teacher for almost a decade. When a coworker decided to run for school board, she helped run her (successful!) campaign, and through that was introduced to Teach PA. She is currently a part time field organizer focused on engaging and growing the Miami area activist network. As a product of Jewish day schools and a new parent, she is passionate about Teach Coalition’s mission and the future success of our schools. She recently relocated to Philadelphia, but she is looking forward to continuing her work with the Teach Coalition.
