Director of Education

Frannie Magnani

Frannie Magnani has been a member of the Sacramento Jewish community for most of her life. She is passionate about Jewish education and is deeply dedicated to the education of, as she sees it, “our future leaders.” With over 30 years of experience in Jewish educational settings, she brings her expertise and heart to the CBS community. 

Her experience includes several years teaching English in Israel as well as at Shalom School in Sacramento. Her educational philosophy aligns seamlessly with Neshama's and is rooted in differentiated instruction, as there is no one-size-fits-all approach to learning. By incorporating hands-on projects and kinesthetic learning activities, she engages students in meaningful ways and helps each learner reach their full potential. 

In addition to teaching, she creates resources that bridge Judaic content with essential academic standards and skills, ensuring that Jewish learning is both relevant and rigorous. She is committed to cultivating joyful, thoughtful, and personalized Jewish learning experiences for every child and family.
