At the suggestion of a friend whose son enjoyed his experience, we decided to investigate the possibility of our son attending NYHS.   We were attracted by the small class size and the school's reputation for developing critical thinking and analytical skills through the combination of Judaic and academic studies.

Although he had never attended a Jewish day school, the faculty assured us that our son would receive the support that was necessary...what they didn't say, and what we now know, is that the support network of any NYHS student comes not only from the faculty, but from the immediate and welcoming embrace of the students and the school's community.

Our son Andrew is currently a happy, involved and enthusiastic senior at NYHS; we cannot imagine a better learning and spiritual environment for his high school experience and hope that he will carry this experience forward for his college years.
