Mission Statement

Yavneh Day School is committed to academic excellence in General and Jewish studies within a strong, vibrant community where each child is celebrated and challenged. A Yavneh education is about discovering how a child learns in order to maximize each student’s potential while fostering curiosity, encouraging risk taking, and ingraining a love of learning.

About This Cause

Yavneh Day School is committed to each child realizing his or her highest academic potential in an environment which nurtures that child and guides him or her toward a lifelong love of learning, a strong Jewish identity, compassion as a human being and becoming a contributing member of the community. Honesty, compassion and emphasis on the positive are hallmarks of the school's approach to life and learning. Yavneh provides outstanding academic curricula taught in a caring, supportive environment in which each student can grow academically, emotionally, physically and spiritually. Yavneh teaches students to become critical thinkers, collaborators and problem solvers. Teachers are skilled in differentiation within the classroom and across grade levels and hands-on, experiential learning is valued across academic disciplines. Teachers at Yavneh cultivate self-assurance in students and help them realize their potential as successful lifelong learners. Yavneh integrates Jewish and secular learning in order to demonstrate that students are whole individuals, multi-faceted and able to draw from a total of their learning experiences to address new questions or situations. This integration prepares graduates for comfortable and informed participation in a pluralistic society. Yavneh Day School encourages the involvement of entire families in the school community. Parents volunteer in the classroom, participate in holiday celebrations, and raise money to strengthen and broaden school programs and to ensure that families from all economic backgrounds may receive the benefit of a Yavneh education. Yavneh offers an egalitarian environment in every aspect of the school. Boys and girls are offered the same opportunities in religious observance and ritual, as well as in classroom and athletic experiences and leadership roles within the school.
