At a Glance
A Chabad-Lubavitch boys' yeshiva at the historic heart of Crown Heights, where rigorous Jewish study and secular academics share the school day.
Best suited for
Hasidic or Chabad-affiliated families seeking an all-boys elementary education where intensive religious study and secular academics carry equal weight, and who want their children raised within the heart of the Crown Heights Lubavitch community.
What stands out
- A full Chabad-Lubavitch curriculum covering Talmud, Halacha, Chassidus, and Kabbalah — deeper than most elementary religious schools.
- All-boys environment through elementary years, with no co-ed mixing at the K-5 stage.
- An 8:1 student-teacher ratio on 447 students — a sizable school that still feels personal.
- Secular academics are taken seriously enough to include spelling bees and science fairs alongside the religious curriculum.
- Location at the geographic center of the Chabad-Lubavitch movement in America.
Things to consider
- This is a yeshiva first — families should expect the school day to center on Jewish study, observance, and Chabad values.
- All-boys only through fifth grade; not an option for families seeking coeducation at this stage.
- The student body is demographically homogeneous and reflects a particular community — families should be comfortable joining a Chabad milieu.
- Rolling admissions offer flexibility, but without a fixed deadline structure some families prefer a clearer application timeline.
- Tuition and financial aid details are not reflected in the data available here and should be requested directly.
Identity
An all-boys Chabad-Lubavitch yeshiva serving pre-K through fifth grade, combining intensive religious study (Talmud, Halacha, Chassidus, Kabbalah) with a full secular academic program in a non-judgmental environment focused on moral and ethical development. The school is rooted in the Chabad tradition and serves families seeking an immersive Jewish education alongside standard elementary academics.
Community
With 447 students and 55 FTE teachers, the school maintains a notably low 8:1 student-teacher ratio that allows for close personal attention. The reported demographic breakdown shows a 100% White student body and a 0 diversity index — characteristic of a Chabad yeshiva, where the community is overwhelmingly Jewish rather than reflective of the surrounding neighborhood.
Neighborhood
Crown Heights (South) is the historic heart of Chabad-Lubavitch in America, and the school's location reflects that — a deeply rooted Hasidic Jewish presence sits alongside broader Caribbean-American life in the area. Census figures put median household income near $70,000, the poverty rate around 20%, and about 36% of adults holding a bachelor's degree, painting a working- and middle-income community.
The Kingston Av (3) station is about a 7-minute walk, the Crown Hts–Utica Av (3, 4) station about 9 minutes, and President St–Medgar Evers College (2, 5) roughly 13 minutes on foot.
