JKHA/RKYHS faculty joined the Greater MetroWest Day Schools for a Day of Collaboration and Learning.

To celebrate 10 years of collaboration between the four Jewish Day Schools in Greater MetroWest and to kick off the Quest for Teaching Excellence professional development day, the Heads of School of the four Greater MetroWest Jewish Day Schools shared a ride with lead benefactor Paula Gottesman in a unique version of Day School Carpool Karaoke. Talk about collaboration!

RKYHS in the News!

In a recent JTA article about how Jewish Day Schools are handling current events topics, Rabbi Rubin discussed how the RKYHS SEED program brings in a wide-range of speakers each week that offer new and differing perspectives and encourages students to challenge assumptions and engage in issues.  


Rabbi Rubin was interviewed for an article in the Jewish Week and Times of Israel about how Orthodox schools are approaching sex education and the issues of harassment in the news.
