How Kehillah
does Kehillah
A Note From our Head of School

Dear Visitor, 

You are exactly where you should be — exploring our website as you get to know us as a prospective member of our community.

I remember doing the same back in 2019, when I considered moving my family across the country to become Kehillah’s fourth Head of School. Believe it or not, it wasn’t the California sunshine that drew me here. It was the language of belonging, the deep care for each student’s journey over four years, and the commitment to helping every student take meaningful steps toward becoming their fullest self.


This is what makes Kehillah unique.

It’s how Kehillah does Kehillah — firmly rooted in Jewish values — that caught my eye, engaged my heart, and continues to inspire me every day.

What does this mean for you, our students?

BELONG

Kehillah means “community,” and here, you will find belonging in the relationships you build.

With expert educators, the peers who challenge and support you, the clubs and teams you join, and the shared experiences that shape your journey. Whether you’re performing in the fall play, demonstrating a trick in the Untalent Show, bringing home a trophy from Moot Beit Din or the Sailbot Robotics competition, or simply sharing lunch with a couple of friends and a teacher for a deeper conversation, you will be welcomed for exactly who you are.

You will be empowered to choose the pathways that ignite your curiosity, the avenues that amplify your voice, and the ways you co-create your own experience and growth.

Why Kehillah?

At Kehillah, small class sizes ensure space for personalized attention and meaningful connections with expert faculty. In this student-centered environment, curiosity is encouraged, learning is deep, and every student is supported to grow into their full potential.

 

We have very small class sizes, so that means you can teach differently, you can teach how most teachers want to teach.
