My children love Mr. "E". He is caring, and goes out of his way for my son and other students. My son struggled with ADHD, and Mr. "E" made it possible for my son to stay in his class by giving him work that my son could do and keep up with the class. Also, with the addition of Rabbi Soleitchik, I can only imagine the religious and secular studies gaining in strength to surpass schools like Solomon Schechter, Ramaz, and Manhattan Day school. I''ve very happy my son is at YRSRH.

I am a parent of a student who has been at YRSRH for four years. Since the addition of Mr. Roher and Mr. Ehrenkranz, the secular academic program has skyrocketed in quality and has rejuvenated the confidence, we as parents, have in this school. Kudos to the administration for hiring and keeping quality educators.
