Hi,

We are considering moving to chicago. Can someone explain what institutions are for which ages - for both boys and girls - I.e., nursery, kindergarten, yeshiva, elementary...? Looking at beis yaakov elementary & yeshiva tiferes tzvi.

Thank you!

JDBY (the BY elementary) and YTT is from k-8. Kindergarten in Chicago is what they call the year before first grade. They also have a nursery program connected to the schools, (that is for the year before kindergarten). For younger ages than that there is private babysitting in people's houses.
For high school there is BY High School or Hanna Sacks for girls and a bunch of mesivtas for boys (Telshe, and Me'or are the bigger ones and there are a few newer smaller ones)

Thanks Smile

So from what I get from the website, nursery is until age 4, and then is there also pre-1a AND kindergarten? What comes first? Thanks!

In these schools, pre-1A is for boys only, after nursery and before grade one and kindergarten is only for the girls of that ages.
