Love of Torah & Enthusiasm for Learning
Mizrahi Torah Academy is a Yeshiva Day School designed to develop the next generation of Jewish leaders by molding students into moral, caring, thinking, educated, and contributing members of society. Our school environment creates a love of Torah and Yiddishkeit, an enthusiasm for academic learning, curiosity through experimentation and creative approaches to learning. Through a unique blend of quality academics with interactive chesed projects, we are creating the future leaders of the Jewish community. Here are some of our school highlights:
+ Individualized attention: With our signature small class sizes, our warm classroom environment promotes differentiated and independent problem solving and cultivation of a passion for learning.
+ Mastering Middos: Our weekly focus on a practical Middah utilizing Torah, stories, and parables builds life-long character skills.
+ No Tests or Homework in Elementary School: Our policy reduces unnecessary academic pressure and provides time after school for individual interest development. Lack of letter-grading promotes enthusiasm and an eagerness to learn. If a child needs extra support for a particular skill, teachers may work together with the parents in arranging supplemental learning or review at home. Middle school students receive occasional homework to help them prepare for the rigors of high school.
+ Teachable Moments: Our academic program promotes a “seize the teachable moment” philosophy of education which empowers the teachers to mold the classroom experience to meet the needs and interests of the students.

Where We Stand Out
-
Small Class Size
By having small class sizes, we can provide individualized attention where no child slips through the cracks or is bored in class. With small class sizes, we can also promote independent problem solving, build confidence, and promote a passion for learning.
-
Less-Stress Learning
Mastery of material can be evaluated in ways other than tests. Our teachers constantly monitor student performance to highlight strengths and weaknesses. Our no tests/no homework policy in elementary school reduces unnecessary academic pressure and provides time after school for individual interest development. Lack of letter-grading promotes holistic education and an eagerness to learn.
-
Unique Educational Approach
Our experiential curriculum and individualized approach to education creates a strong sense of community where character development and middos are as primary to the curriculum as the textbooks we use. The ultimate result is happy, confident, well-spoken, involved contributors to the Jewish community and greater society.

“Our daughters have blossomed academically, emotionally and spiritually throughout their years at MTA. The care the teachers display combined with the attitude and approach to education is refreshing and priceless!”

Yaakov & Stacey Waldman
“MTA embodies Chanoch L’naar Al Pi Darko. From the moment our children walked on campus, the administration, rebbeim and teachers saw our children’s strengths and have focused on how to educate them as individuals ever since. Our children leave in the morning excited for school and come home happy every day. MTA is a school that every child deserves to be in: a warm, loving, happy place that instills a love of yiddishkeit and learning every day.”

“We could not be happier switching our son to MTA! The small classes make each child feel noticed and cared for. The students truly feel the warmth and love from all the teachers and staff. THANK YOU MTA!!! “
