Yeshiva Atlanta is a Modern Orthodox high school. Our mission is to offer a well-rounded Torah-based college preparatory education to young Jewish men and women. We embrace the ideals ofAhavat Yisrael, the love of all Jews, and the significance of Medinat Yisrael, the State of Israel.
Modern Orthodox means that Judaism is integrated with the surrounding modern society. Modern Orthodoxy stresses that if grounded in Jewish values, this interaction is both desirable as well as intellectually and spiritually profitable. Modern Orthodox Jews are committed to Torah, traditional Jewish principles of faith and customs.
Well-rounded means all our students are exposed to and encouraged to reach their highest personal potential. In Judaics, students engage the classical texts of Judaism in their original languages. In secular studies, they learn a wide range of disciplines, including mathematics, the natural sciences, literature, the arts, and sports. Students come to appreciate the best of the secular world and integrate it into a Torah-based life.
Torah-based means that the guiding principles and practices of Yeshiva Atlanta are grounded in halacha.College Preparatory means that all our students are part of a community of learners who strive for high academic standards in both secular and Judaic studies. They aspire to further their education at the finest universities and Yeshivot.
Ahavat Yisrael means that we value and understand the importance of all Jews and encourage interaction and involvement in the Jewish community in its entirety.Medinat Yisrael means that we view the creation of the state of Israel as one of the seminal events in Jewish history. Recognizing the religious significance of Israel and its national institutions, we seek to instill in our students an attachment to the State of Israel and its people as well as a sense of responsibility for their welfare. We welcome students who are respectful and accepting of our mission and philosophy.If you would like to learn more about modern Orthodox day schools in North America, see Rabbi Jack Bieler's interesting article"Preserving Modern Orthodoxy in Our Day Schools"
