What do you want to know? This is just for the girls school, I haven't had children in the boy's school.

It is essentially an oot BY.

What really makes it stand out is the quality of the principal and the quality of the education.

The parent body is somewhat mixed as is typical for out of town. The classes have gotten large on the last few years.

The limudei kodesh and secular are both outstanding.

The principal knows every girl, her strengths and challenges and goes above and beyond to address them.

I only have boys Very Happy. It does sound about right hashkafically (I would assume the boys school has the same hashkafah?) Do the boys also have a good secular curriculum? This is important to us. Also, would they be able to work with a child with learning issues?

The boys school is a little more to the right. (IMO).

They have school on Sunday which doesn't work for us, and doesn't quite have the same outstanding reputation for academics. But they do havea beautiful building.

Sorry can't be of more help about the boy's school. (But the girls is really fantastic).

I'm fine with Sunday school. I don't need top notch secular studies, but they have to be good enough that the kids can go to a good college (if they so choose). Do you know where the boys typically go to high school? And yeah, the most important consideration is if they'd work with my child with the learning issues.

I know plenty of guys who have gone to sharei zion and gone on to Ivy League colleges.....
I think it is probably the highest standard you will be able to get in the area before going to the more MO schools -it is hashkaficly RW though an OOT version versus the LKWD, Brooklyn, Monsey version....
