At a Glance
An intimate all-boys Jewish middle school where every student is known by name
Best suited for
Jewish families looking for a small, all-boys yeshiva middle school with intensive personalized attention, where boys can build strong Jewish identity alongside a college-prep academic track.
What stands out
- 5.7:1 student-teacher ratio — among the lowest in New York City private schools
- Tiny total enrollment of 37 students across three grades
- All-boys learning environment for grades 6-8
- Dual curriculum combining Torah and Talmud study with Regents-accredited secular coursework
- Shabbatonim and Jewish holiday observances built into the school calendar
- State-of-the-art computer laboratory
Things to consider
- Very small size limits the peer group and extracurricular variety
- Only covers grades 6-8, so families must plan a separate high school transition
- All-boys setting won't work for families seeking coeducation
- Strong Jewish commitment is central — this is not a culturally Jewish option
- Rolling admissions with no formal deadline
