Welcome to the HMJDS Web Site!
As you explore the site’s pages, read our newsletters, view pictures of our students at work, and explore our curricular offerings, I hope that you will understand our commitment to prepare graduates for success in high school, college and their adult Jewish life, graduates who are confident in their Judaism, committed to the Jewish community, and engaged responsibly with the global society. I trust that portraits of our creative teachers are painted, teachers who are knowledgeable in best practices, expert at capturing imaginations, and effective in addressing diverse learning styles to enable all students to find their passion and reach their highest potential.
I hope that you, like so many others in our growing school community will be excited by our tradition of nurturing intellectual curiosity, artistic expression, and social responsibility through personal attention to individual learners. I hope that you can see yourself as part of the mosaic of a broad cross-section of the Jewish community, one that celebrates many approaches to Jewish practice yet shares a commitment to text-based core values that provides our children and parents with a strong ethical and moral foundation.
Most importantly, I hope that our interest in the whole child whets your appetite to learn more about us and that you will visit us to see first-hand how the philosophy and programs described on these pages are brought to life.
We look forward to your participation in the life of the Day School community!
B’shalom,
Ray Levi
Head of School
