- The Yeshiva Academy is a progressive, modern school that welcomes all Jewish children.
- Our rich, challenging curriculum helps students achieve the intellectual and social skills needed to succeed in their lives and careers.
- At the same time they gain appreciation for the values of Jewish life and are taught the tenets of good American citizenship.
- At a time when many public schools are eliminating the arts, at The Yeshiva Academy music and arts programs continue to thrive.
- We believe art instruction helps students build confidence, creativity and an appreciation for culture.
- The Yeshiva Academy is one of the few schools in the nation to receive a full Cognitive Learning Systems grant, resulting in a new, fully equipped science lab and the application of an innovative teaching method, based on how children of different ages learn.
