David Posnack Hebrew Day School (Upper School)

The David Posnack Hebrew Day School (DPHDS) offers a unique challenging educational experience combining an intensive focused secular education with an innovative exciting Jewish curriculum. At the DPHDS, we are concerned not only with our students' academic accomplishments, but also with their social and character development. We believe that this can be achieved most successfully when parents and school staff work together in a nurturing environment in order to ensure our children's well being.

The David Posnack Hebrew Day School has two locations; the Lower School (K-5) is located at: 5810 South Pine Island Rd. Davie, FL 33328; the Upper School (6-12) is located at: 6701 West Sunrise Boulevard Plantation, FL 33313.

The DPHDS objective is to provide an outstanding, comprehensive general studies program that meets high academic expectations as we prepare our students in a college prep and college prep honors program.  Underlying the philosophy of the school is a Judaic studies program that provides students with an understanding of Jewish history, Hebrew language, and Jewish values that emphasize responibility to others, and a need to contribute to the betterment of the world.
