Welcome Letter
Committed to providing a dual curriculum of excellence in secular and Judaic studies, the Solomon Schechter Day School of Nassau County and High School of Long Island is a Jewish day school system offering a complete K -12 education in a caring and supportive atmosphere. At Schechter, we explore the wisdom of text, tradition, analysis, and synthesis to prepare our students for leadership in the Jewish community, the greater Long Island arena and beyond. At Schechter, the joy of learning is intertwined with the Jewish tradition at every corner and bend of our students’ journey of learning. A vibrant community housed on two campuses, Schechter is defined by a commitment to Jewish education, outstanding academics and dedication to the development of character. Outstanding teachers, dedicated students, committed parents, and loyal alumni comprise our Solomon Schechter family. The value of the SSDS experience is evident in the faces of our students. Enthusiasm, joy and optimism are nurtured here in a learning community which encourages students to develop their personal interests and gifts and inspires them to reach their potential. Outstanding faculty place the needs of the children first in the classroom as they make use of creative and effective teaching styles and strategies that capitalize on the different ways that students learn, individually and collaboratively. Our school’s reputation for excellence began on Long Island in 1967 and continues today. Our students achieve to the highest of standards, gaining acceptance to some of our nation’s finest colleges and universities. Our alumni enter the professional world prepared to lead with sensitivity, creativity and insight. Together, their accomplishments bear testament to the education they received at Schechter, enabling them with confidence to be successful 21st century citizens while embracing the values of our ancient Jewish tradition. A Schechter education lasts a lifetime. Your child’s formal educational life begins with us at Schechter. Shalom u'vracha, |
