I went there for one year. It was very small and cliquey when I was there.

I have enrolled my DD for the upcoming school year, she'll be boarding. the past school year the high school was all of 11 girls, can't imagine it would be very cliquey now LOL

Other than that did u like the teachers, the hanhala. I got a great impression from visiting the school, I just wanted some opinions from ppl who've been students there or had dd's there.

Thanks for the quick response!

Yes the teachers were nice and the hanhallah was nice. I just remember that I found it difficult being the new girl when all the other girls knew each other and were so close because of the small size of the school. I chose not to go back for a second year.

WOW!!! I graduated from Bais Chana more than 25 years ago.

We had the most amazing group of girls, some ardent bt's (like myself) some anti-frum, others from disfunctional or other unusual backgrounds, some just regular frum kids. Those years changed all of our lives, in profound ways.

One thing is, many of us didn't pay any tuition at all, they accepted us with open arms. Teenaged-style, I felt that I was doing them a favor, somehow, and didn't appreciate all they did for me til many years later.

I've often wondered what ever happened to Bais Chana, even if it still existed, which it obviously does.
I would LOVE to know all about it, who runs it, what it's like. Is it on the same gorgeous campus?


Hatlacha rabbah, I hope you daughter has a wonderful year!
