Dear Parents,
At Hebrew Day School, we are more than just a school—we are a warm, inclusive community where every student and family plays an essential role. We are thrilled to welcome you to a place where joyful engagement, academic excellence, and Jewish values create a community that is truly special.
We meet each learner where they are, providing personalized attention that fosters individual growth. Through intimately-sized instructional groups and an innovative curriculum, we challenge and nurture every student. Our educators, experts in both their subjects and child development, ensure that learning is personal, transformative, and infused with curiosity and wonder. We hear that middle schools love receiving alumni of Hebrew Day School of Ann Arbor. Our graduates leave our school with learning skills that allow them to excel as they continue their academic and socio-emotional journeys.
As a community Jewish day school, we celebrate the unique Jewish life within each home and heart. We strengthen connections to tradition while embracing innovation, empowering students to feel confident and ready to leave their mark on the world.
We believe in creating safe spaces for students to be themselves, alongside brave spaces where they can stretch beyond their comfort zones. It is with this balance of safety and bravery that our students truly grow—academically, socially, and spiritually.
We are saving a spot just for your family and we look forward to welcoming you into our community of learners, thinkers, and doers.
Warmly,
