Reply To: Seminary options?

#907920

Hi so I see Nanny has started the ongoing conversation, My principal gave me the option of maybe Ateres, but I am in 12th grade so I have to decide very soon! I am looking for a seminary that really stresses the value of torah and mitzvot and halchot because i regard it highly, but aren’t so narrow, they teach the whole picture, they stress the halachot but like they don’t force you. I want to leave feeling like I love Hashem not overwhelmed and irritated after hearing about tzniut, etc. I’m interested in Bais Yaakov, I asked about darchei binah, but I know a close friend who didn’t havethe best experience. To candy..the one who went to ateres, help me out haha, is ateres warm? do they stress midot tovot, do they let you ask questions till you completely understand it because my friend scared me that some schools can call you apikores. I know everyone is on their own tznius level, theirs obviously a dress code, but do they recognize everyone is on their own level and if something is un- tznius they say it nicely. and also would you do me the great chesed of telling me what classes you had besides chumash and navi like others for an example- eshes chayil, tehilim, koheles, mishlei, I learned those in highschool, anything like that? I looked online and I saw bnos chana, halichos, but my school is unfamiliar about that one, although the classes seemed nice, its alittle risky to go somewhere my teachers never heard of, but some alumnis from my school went to ateres…
