Program areas at Shefa School
The Shefa School offers families a unique educational choice: high-quality, research-based instruction for children with language-based learning disabilities that is seamlessly integrated with jewish community, learning, culture, and traditions. Each child's unique gifts, talents, skills, and insights is the launching point for an individualized instructional plan that fosters academic, social, and emotional competence and confidence. By celebrating a child's strengths, encouraging their interests, and giving them the tools to overcome their challenges, we create a warm, supportive community, where students feel understood, accepted, and valued. For the 2022-2023 fiscal year the School enrolled 211 students.
