Mission
Our Mission: Awaken. Build. Connect.
Tehiyah Day School is a Jewish community day school committed to:
Awakening intellectual curiosity and a strong sense of Jewish identity
Building a culture of thoughtfulness and ethical behavior
Connecting learners to their community, the world and their authentic (best) selves.
By infusing our core values into the TDS curriculum, our students and faculty are truly able to “live” our mission and model traditional Jewish values in their everyday practice.
Community Kehillah קהילה
Tehiyah promotes a strong sense of קהילה (kehillah)- community and רוח (ruach) - spirit. Together we build a school that is nurturing, inclusive, and diverse – where each individual is able to express their best and most authentic self. We prepare our students to make the world around them a more compassionate, just, and peaceful place (תיקון עול×)- Tikkun Olam).
