Founded in 1978, the Jewish Community Day School of Rhode Island has been educating children on the East Side over the last four decades. Serving prekindergarten through 5th grade, the day school employs a progressive curriculum taught by a highly educated staff. Around 70% of the school’s faculty has a master’s degree or higher.
The school has 77 students in total with a student-to-teacher ratio of 4-to-1. Creativity and proactive learning are woven into the school’s curriculum and supported by the more than 25 field trips taken every year on the school’s private bus. The courses offered to students allow them to evolve as critical thinkers, hands-on learners and problem solvers.
Toddlers as young as three years old are welcomed to join the school's prekindergarten class. Kindergarten students should be five years old by October 1st to begin the year. Students of all ages participate in a dual curriculum, learning general studies alongside the Hebrew language. Respecting all levels of observance and Jewish practice, the Jewish Community Day School welcomes all students of Jewish backgrounds.

If your kid gets lucky and has a good cohort, gets the good teachers, and doesn’t have any learning or psychological differences (which no parent is certain of at age 4 or 5), it can be a great school. All of my kids came out with a greater Jewish identification that was beautiful to see. However, b...

There are some exceptional teachers at this school but unfortunately it does not make up for the toxic leadership. If you want to be gossiped about by Board members, this is your school.

My 2 children and our family have loved being a part of JCDSRI. Our children are learning how to be leaders and thoughtful students. Academically, the teachers and specialists make sure our children's needs are met so they can thrive as learners. You will not find a more loving school community.
