School Description
We guide, challenge, and inspire children (age 5 through 5th grade) as they embark upon lifelong journeys of learning and Jewish engagement. Fostering intellectual curiosity, creativity, respect for diverse points of view, and joy in learning are core academic goals. Creating meaningful, tangible, and indelible Jewish experience is our core spiritual goal. As a community Jewish day school, SJCS is unaffiliated with a particular Jewish movement or philosophy. Our students learn in an egalitarian, co-educational setting, and our community is rooted in an inclusive approach that respects and values diversity of opinion and practice.

(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Wonderful community school that allows children to flourish in their academic and social development. The dual curriculum is rigorous and prepares the students to be successful in future academic environments. The teachers are superb and are committed to each of the children not just during the year they teach them, but throughout the children's tenure at the school. The community is supportive of each other and the high level of family involvement allows for the values embodied by the school to be seamlessly modeled at home as well.

- This school is a great place for all kids, including high achievers. The teachers are dedicated to meeting the children where they are, and helping them to soar - and the small class size and close caring community of the school provide the support for doing exactly that. We chose this school for the egalitarian approach to Jewish education. We love the integrated second language - and the before and after school care is flexible, caring, fun and challenging.
