How do you like the school? What do you think of the teachers? Are the kids able to make a good kesher with them? Do you like the quality of education? What are the other kids like? Etc etc. and anything else you’d want to share! Thanks!

My kids don't go there but a former student sends there. It is considered MO, Co-ed all the way through till 8th but the classes get separated after a while, not sure which grade, the school considers kodesh/chol to be equal so equal hours each day with a big emphasis on midot and eretz yisroel. The staff is very warm.

Happy with the school so far. Thank G-d my kids don’t have any learning difficulties so we haven’t had to deal with any challenges regarding that.
The teachers have all been good. My kids have been happy for the most part. One of my kids loves going to school every morning. Like that child literally tells me they love going to school and comes home excited and telling me about everyyyyything.

Kids are grade dependent just like any school. My kids two grades have different vibes to them. If you’d tell me specific which grade your child(ren) is/are in I can let you know if mine are in either of those ages.

I really really like some of the teachers.
The school tries to make learning fun.
It’s a decent school. Every school has its good and not as great but overall it has a good feel to it and the overall warmth is what we were looking for. It has a strong love for Israel also which was important to us. And the teachers make the kids feel cared about.

Anything more specific you want to know?

The boys and girls get separated at 5th grade btw.
Personally to me it’s a plus having boys and girls in the same buildings and campus because it normalizes the relationships between the two genders instead of making it all taboo.
