At a Glance

An All-Girls Elementary Yeshiva with a Church of God Affiliation in Midwood

Best suited for

Families seeking a small, all-girls religious elementary school in the Mapleton-Midwood area who are comfortable with a homogeneous student body and want single-sex education for their daughters. Best fit for parents who prioritize a traditional religious environment and small class sizes over diversity and are willing to evaluate the unusual religious affiliation directly with the school.

What stands out
  • All-girls elementary environment from pre-K through 5th grade
  • Small school scale with 478 total students
  • 13:1 student-teacher ratio provides relatively personalized attention
  • Located in a neighborhood with very high family density (91/100)
  • Single-sex education for young girls
Things to consider
  • Religious affiliation (Church of God in Christ) is unusual for a school named Yeshiva — families should inquire directly about this
  • Student body is 100% White with zero diversity — significant tradeoff for families seeking multicultural exposure
  • Safety score of 58/100 is below average — parents should visit the neighborhood personally
  • Moderate transit score (61/100) may mean longer commutes for some families
  • As an all-girls school, there is no option for coeducational settings
IdentityThe School Appears To Operate Within A Traditional Religious Framework, Though The Specific Educational Philosophy Is Not Detailed In Available Data. The Single-Sex Environment For Girls Suggests A Focus On Tailored Educational Approaches For Young Female Learners.

An all-girls private elementary school with a 13:1 student-teacher ratio, serving pre-K through 5th grade. The religious affiliation (Church of God in Christ) is unusual for a school named Yeshiva — typically yeshivas are Jewish institutions — suggesting either a unique denominational history or a data anomaly worth noting.

CommunityHomogeneous

This is an extremely homogeneous student body — 100% White with a diversity index of 0 on a 0-1 scale. For families seeking a diverse classroom experience, this would represent the opposite end of the spectrum.
