For 50 years, TanenbaumCHAT has been a champion for our youth. We have educated thousands of students, helping them to live their Jewish identity, and to shape their understanding of themselves and the world around them.
We are an outstandingly successful academic school, in parallel providing the motivation, knowledge and skills to help students explore and intensify their involvement with Judaism and Jewish life. We cultivate confidence and leadership through extensive extracurricular programs. Our students build lifelong friendships that provide lasting community networks. No other school offers this richness and depth of Jewish experience and better prepares students for university or college.
At TanenbaumCHAT, our students work hard but they also have a lot of fun, learning from a knowledgeable, empathetic and inspiring faculty. Students have every opportunity to develop their leadership skills through a range of extra-curricular activities and learn to help others in our community, in Israel and around the world.
