There were also plans to create a literary magazine. Kadima, which is Hebrew for "moving forward," and MJHS's school motto. The motto reflects what Groveman had in mind for the students' future, and education. The Memphis Jewish High School maintained a Community Service Committee (Hebrew: TIkkun Olam). It focused its attention on charities, as well as active community service at places such as the Memphis Jewish Home, a retirement home, and Plough Towers, another retirement community. In addition to the Harkness Table method, MJHS also featured an extensive technological program that incorporated Apple MacBook laptop computers into the classroom. While the technology course was optional, all students used the computers in every class. Richard Ireland was the Master Technology Teacher at MJHS. Each classroom featured a large 'Smart' Board, motorized drop-down screen, projector, and audio system. Each classroom was equipped to project cable, VGA, DVI, mini-DVI, and Component video signals. The audio system in each classroom produced the audio that accompanies cable and component video, as well as computer and CD playback audio.
