Our daughter EXCELLED in Kehillah's extremely academic and lovingly supportive environment. She got into all her target colleges and adored her teachers. Kehillah is an undiscovered gem with lots of individualized attention for students.

When I first joined Kehillah I thought that it would be difficult to fit in since I am not Jewish but instantly I had found myself a group of people whom are still my good friends today. However I have to admit that the finals hit me harder than anything I would have ever thought of. Finally I would like to have a closer place to which I could get food easier.

At Kehillah, there is no pressure to fit a mold or hide one's full emerging identity. It's a gift for any teen to have four years to safely experiment and discover themselves free...
