About our Admissions Process
Our thoughtful admissions process is designed to allow us to get to know each child as an individual and as a learner. It also allows each family to get to know the people and program that make up our remarkable HMJDS community.
One visit to our school reveals how your child can benefit from teachers who creatively nurture intellectual curiosity and inspire social responsibility. Visitors also appreciate how our nationally-aligned curriculum is enhanced by spacious classrooms, comfortable nooks designed for small group work, technology and science labs, a Beit Knesset (sanctuary), art studios, and a dedicated Campus athletic wing enhance our nationally-aligned curriculum.
Please visit us for a Prospective Parent Open House and/or for a private meeting and tour! HMJDS welcomes inquiries and applications for all its grade levels, fully-day kindergarten – grade 8. No prior Hebrew language experience is required.
