Mission Statement:
The Jewish Day School of the Lehigh Valley is a community school for primary kindergarten to grade eight that is dedicated to a holistic approach to education.  We are devoted to the development of bright, confident students with a strong American and Jewish identity who are well prepared to meet the world.  The school combines a well-rounded general studies curriculum, a richly fortified Jewish education and a deep commitment to the land and people of Israel.

Make the Educated choice:
The JDS has provided children with an outstanding education for more than 50 years.  Students benefit from a well-rounded curriculum that builds a strong foundation in mathematics, social studies, literature, writing, Hebrew language, and Jewish studies.  All students are instructed in our state-of-the-art science lab and in our fully equipped computer lab.  Students gain hands-on experience that will prove invaluable in their high school studies and beyond.  JDS students receive an excellent liberal arts education, which includes music and art instruction as an integral part of their education.  Students learn independent research skills through the library science curriculum.

Students come from many neighborhoods across the Lehigh Valley and surrounding areas.  Tuition assistance is available for families that meet the required guidelines.
