ShalomLearning bills separately from JLearnHub. If you start the year licensing directly through JLearnHub and choose to switch to ShalomLearning within the same school year, JLearnHub can transfer your licensing fee to ShalomLearning to be applied to that year's LMS registration fee.
Licensing directly through JLearnHub gets you access to a Google Drive which includes:
- License Agreement
- 8 HSBS (Decoding) Packet PDFs
- 8 HSBS (Decoding) Packet SlideDecks
- HSBS (Decoding) Supplementary Resources (1-Page letter chart, letter flashcards, decoding assessment)
- 17 Beit Midrash Prayer Guide packet PDFs
- 17 Beit Midrash Prayer Guide SlideDecks
Licenses are valid for one school year (2022-2023), until August 1, 2023. Licenses are sold in batches of 10. Please purchase enough license-batches to cover all students who will be using materials from the curriculum this school year, whether via in-person, virtual, or hybrid learning.
Your school's Google Drive and License Agreement will be set up and shared with you within a few business days of receiving both this listing's Licensing Fee and the School License Info form so License Agreement can be filled out and your Google Drive folder can be shared with the correct people.
JLearnHub keeps the costs of HSBS Licenses low to help schools offset the cost of printing your own materials and in consideration of the budgetary needs of small schools going virtual for the first time; 90% of your licensing fee goes directly to the curriculum designer (10% keeps this website running). Thank you for supporting HSBS's independent curriculum designers by purchasing enough licenses for all your students and renewing each year you use these materials!
