In 2007, the Hartman Institute, under Donniel Hartman's direction, set up a religious high school for girls, Midrashiya, whose curriculum includes "a critical approach to the study of Jewish texts," volunteer work, and a sex-education curriculum, "one of the first ever among religious schools in Israel."
