As a parent and admissions director, I know that finding the right school for your child is a critical process - thank you for your interest in Brandeis Hillel Day School.
At our school, we focus on the excellence of our academic program - and much more. The individual strengths and challenges of each child. The collective dynamic in each classroom. The constant directive to live our values and make our world a better place. BHDS is a joyful school, and we learn and celebrate life every day.
In the hallways, I'm always thrilled to find students building a complex machine model for science - next to classmates working on an essay on contemporary identity. I'm moved by a rigorous 7th grade project that asks our students to make philanthropic decisions with class funds. Our graduates don't just thrive in challenging academic high school environments - they become active, thoughtful contributors.
We are a unique kind of Jewish Day School. Our community is diverse - we are not affiliated with any particular movement - and our families have a broad range of backgrounds including interfaith and non-Jewish families. We are proud of our Jewish values and infuse integrity, kindness and service to others into everything we do.
This includes our admissions process. We host a variety of events that provide you with a well-rounded sense of who we are - and we understand this is a serious choice. Please explore these pages, which contain information to help you learn more both about our admissions process and our school in general. When you're ready, please get in touch - I look forward to meeting you, your child and your family.
